Using I-Phones in the US?

[pigby]

Thanks, that's a relief. I'll make a note to get a SIM before I go. How/where do I buy a data package?

(Sorry, this will be my first trip to the States so bit clueless!)

Don't worry - I've been to the States numerous times but I'm still clueless around matters such as this

All I know is that DD took her i-Phone to California this time and she turned the phone to 'airplane mode' I think and she was able to connect to the hotels free wi-fi and still chat to her friends at home on Facebook (very important when you're 16)

Very important when you're (well.. will be) 30!

Another techno halfwitt hear So can I buy the AT &T off ebay ,put it n any unlocked phone and I can text and call when Im in the US to my mom on her unlocked phone with an AT&T card? My iphone I am sure is locked to orange and I know there charges are ridiculous.Never used it to cal but texts ate 40 p each. Other option I suppose aqs just calling my mom as she will have some later starts is use the 2 pay as you go cards I have which have £10 credit on

I posted that I went into the T-mobile store at the Florida Mall and asked about micro sim cards for iPad.
The PAYG 100mb card is $10 and is valid for 7 days before it expires .

We resorted to cheap phones from Best Buy as I could not work out a decent deal for the iPhone.
