Celly For My Trip?

starfish · 09-23-2004, 01:23 PM

I'm finally planning a trip to South America and am super excited. I've never planned a trip like this before and there is sooo much to do! It's a big one! Can't wait to visit Peru and Machu Picchu!

I have a tech question for yall. I am considering purchasing a new cell phone specifically for my trip. Moto has a phone called MPx220 I saw it on their site www.motorola.com/offers and it seems like it would be perfect. It has a MP3 player built in which is cool cuz I can download tons of songs and listen to them on my trip

It also has a pretty good camera with flash along with video capture. What is selling me though is the global roaming feature and also Windows OS all in one tiny cell phone.

My question is I would assume its an advantage to have a cell phone along with me on my trip right? It's gonna be five girls total and one of us should have a celly right? Do most people take celly's on trips? Anyone know about this phone or have any suggestions? Thanks!

Rather than buy a cell phone you could rent a cell phone in Peru for a dollar a day. I don't know what your money is like but if you just need the phone for this one trip renting is more than likely a better option.

For information for how to rent a cell phone for a $1 a day you can go here and click on extras_cell phone rental.

Hope that helps[/url]

Another company you can contact is altel phone rental

I know they are friendly and offer services for Latin America.
Good luck!
