My wife and i each have a nokia phone, both on contracts with virgin (not prepaid).
We are thinking of taking our phones with us, mainly to stay in touch with each other. (So I can tell her to come back from shopping and rescue me from the kids!! lol)
What is the best way around this? I have been told that it is much cheaper to SMS each other, and that calls go from bali, via satellite to Australia and back again, and that is why it is so expensive to make voice calls.
Is there any advantage in buying local sim cards over there? And will this change the phone nubers while the temporary SIM cards are in?
Thanks for the advice!
