Erika,

    If I may make some suggestions... if you want to eventually be
able to use that cell phone back in PI, you might want to pick a model
that is a quad-band GSM, because they use 900/1800 frequencies in PI.
My phone is only tri-band, so it only does 850/1800/1900 so I only
have partial coverage if I try to use it over there.

    Also, I don't know if you have any choice of what network to
join, I recommend Cingular, because you can call any of the 50
million+ customers anytime for free.  Also, you can roll-over any
un-used anytime minutes for up to a year.  Very cool.  What network is
your aunt under, because you'll probably join her under her "family
plan", probably paying $10-$20 a month.
