Hello,

We're travelling to Disney World (Orlando) end of September for a two week vacation and looking to see if we can purchase a prepaid cell phones as well as an additional prepaid sim card for our unlocked iphone 3gs. We're coming from Canada and our existing cell phone carriers really charge way too much for roaming fees in the USA.

I know there is an Orlando Wireless store in the Airport..Anyone know if they cell prepaid cell phones that would have minutes + data services (web browswer)? Also have GPS Navigation? Also anyone know if they sell prepaid sim cards with data service? Asking because

(1) Our family already has one unlocked iphone 3gs (Which takes the normal sim's, doesn't need the microsims) so was hoping without too many hoops I could buy a prepaid SIM with an orlando phone # that would have some minutes and data preferably right at the airport. But if not, where would be the next best place to do so?

(2) We'd want to get a second cell phone, preferably also with data and if possible (optional) with GPS navigation. Anyone know if the Orlando Wireless store would sell any? At a reasonable price?

I know we could also go to Target, Walmart, etc.. but we have small children, grandparents, etc so if I could do it all quickly at the airport (and not be overcharged too drastically) that would be great rather than have to stop somewhere else.

Also hoping they could help me with the iphone 3gs sim-card swap/activation if they'd be more knowledgeable there, or if not, any recommendations on places close by disney world where they would sell prepaid sim cards that would also have data and would be knowledgeable enough to help with activation if needed. Don't want to spend an hour or so fiddling with it and waiting on hold with different carriers technical support if we run into problems.

I was looking at Tracphone but they don't have any prepaid cell phones with navigation. Was hoping there might be some cheap prepaid cell phones out there with some form of GPS navigation/data services (web browsing).
