A Travel Realy Phone works like any other cell phone.  All Travel Ready Phones work on the GSM system used in almost EVERY country in the world.  Here in the US we have two choices when it comes to GSM systems; AT&T and T-Mobile, but in most other countries every network is a GSM network.  GSM phones are great because they use SIM cards.  These are small computer cards that usually install just below the battery.  Many people feel their only cell phone options when traveling abroad are to purchase an expensive phone and roaming plan from AT&T or T-Mobile or use one of the international roaming SIM cards in their GSM phone.  These services usually charge from $1 to $5 per minute for both incoming and out going calls.  You can access better service and pay far less by using local network SIM cards. These are called "Pre-Paid" SIM's and are generally available in retail outlets such as convenience stores.  No credit checks or contracts; you pay only for the calling time you use.  Just check around the cash register or ask a clerk, THEY'RE SOLD EVERYWHERE!  However, please be aware that to use these local SIM cards, your phone must be UNLOCKED.  This means it can't be set to only work with one network.  All Travel Ready Phones phones are unlocked and will work with any service provider and can accept a SIM card from ANY overseas cell phone company.  Just make sure the "band" or frequency of your GSM phone matches that of the overseas network.  This is really not a problem as almost every country in Europe, Asia and Africa use the GSM 900/1800 bands.  ALL TRAVEL READY PHONES WORK ON GSM 900/1800 BANDS!  By using local SIM cards you will save a fortune compared to the cost of roaming with AT&T or T-Mobile or using an international "roaming" SIM card.  In fact, the cost of one of our phones is usually less than the cost of of receiving or making 3 - 10 minute phone calls on any of the international roaming plans offered by AT&T or T-Mobile or any of the International "roaming" SIM cards.  PLUS when using  AT&T, T-Mobile or International SIM cards, it is always stipulated that one must have "a device (phone) that operates on the proper frequency (band) for the destination country".  This is the real kicker, YOU USUALLY STILL HAVE TO PURCHASE ANOTHER PHONE!  Plus, we offer free information on purchasing a SIM for the country or countries in which you'll be traveling.  Need more convincing?
