Plenty of options for sim cards how long you over what you planning to do on your phone while out there

I heared USA need 4 bands and blade can get only 2g,not 3g. So no internet for blade. Correct?

1800 only, so you would be limited to edge

There's so much free wifi* around in the USA that when I visit, usually for a fortnight at a time, I don't bother to get a SIM for data, just a $30 T-Mobile pay-as-you-go SIM for making/receiving calls.

* most shopping malls, pretty much every coffee shop, Barnes and Noble bookstores, hotels, etc etc.

I've also used truphone for service, to get UK and US cheap rate calls, but now I use Skype, Viber, or sipgate for internet phone calls.

So, to be honest, I wouldn't bother!

Thank you specul...

But in these shop you mention like barnels,... What are their limitation, you have to register with credit card? Time limited on line?

I managed to use 600Mb in 3 weeks on a Blade in the US.

$50 plus tax for a T-Mobile SIM which gives unlimited data and free calls for a month. I was running the Google Navigation seamlessly on 2G, it was fine. Hotspot? Fine. 3G, 4G - hahahaha wrong frequency :)

Its possible to enable 850mhz 2G (I think using v880 cefs.mbn / amss) think cpg posted about it.
