Calling home from CR
What are my chances of getting in a phone call home to Canada every now and again? We are investigating getting our cell phone unlocked so that we can go the way of a CR sim card. However, failing that, what are the options? ( phone availability/cost..etc )
Thanks in advance!

It is all helpful, many thanks! I got my hands on an unlocked phone that takes a SIM card. Is it best to grab the required card(s) at the airport upon arrival or is there a better/cheaper option. ( as you may have determined I am trying to keep my costs down! )

Our unlocked gsm phone died, so we have been using Skype calling with the computer to the US. Not the video Skype which is free, but a phone call subscription which cost about $3 for 60 minutes in a month. Works great if you have a computer w/you.
Two weeks today though! I will post how it all went on my return
