Flights changed- Any grocery stores open at 5:30 am?

you could go to walmart (i'm sure other stores in the states would be fine also) and buy the cheap (trac) phones to use while in orlando.
buy the minutes card and keep the phone for the next time you will be in the states and use it again.
some trac cards come loaded with some minutes and you can add minutes with the cards.

i found that gas stations had the better cheaper cards to use with this phones.

check out walmart on line and see what they have available.

maybe order it online before you leave on your trip?

Going to check if they'll ship internationally..........the limo guy picking us up from JFK wanted a cell number......but we won't have a phone........this might work..........if it would arrive in time now........wish I'd thought of that earlier............


Ah, they don't ship internationally.......may look for a pay as you go here to take with us.

Thanks, I will have my niece with me so she will need to talk or send messages to her mom. I have my own daycare (I hire a sub) so I need to check in every other day or so. Since buying the ipad I don't think I have purchased any pre-paid phone cards.

sounds like you have a great back up plan with your niece for cell usage.
that will be great!

hopefully someone will be able to share info with you on for your original question about the mini iPad for calling
