Check out roadpost.com. They provide service throughout the world at a
relatively reasonable rate. After you subscribe, you're billed only for
the
calls you actually make. Depending on how long you'll be in Europe, and
how
often you go, it may work out to considerably less than buying a
country-specific SIM card when you get there.

I pondered renting vs. buying a GSM phone. Already purchased one.
For those of you out there who want to compare one to the other, try
www.telestial.com
Thanks for the input.

Note that Telestial is simply a reseller of the Hop Mobile Hop Abroad SIM
card. It is much less expensive to buy the SIM card direct from Hop Mobile
than from resellers such as Telestial or U.S. tronics.
