Folks overseas probably thing this is kinda silly, but as it turns out our cell phones simply won't work overseas. In our case our carrier (Verizon) uses CDMA technology which isn't even used overseas. Other carriers use the more globally accepted GSM technology, but "lock" their cell phones to their networks. Get a phone from AT&T, and it'll work with AT&T, and that's about it.

With our upcoming trip, we don't really need a cell phone, but we've come to rely on its convenience and security.

We're going on a trip!
