I.C.E. although they are on the GSM network for Cingular / ATT & T-Mobile for cell usage, have yet to sign th GPRS Data agreement that allows what you ask. I have been following this & they are stating in the next 3 to 6 months. Then again the Pacific Coast highway was to be done 5 years ago.

If anyone knows anything contrary to this please respond, but I'm fairly sure this is correct.

I couldnt resist, it doesnt work in costa rica, because no one there understands that anyone could be in that much of a hurry to get email, or a cell phone call. mañana.

Perfectly! It is great. A little expensive but convenient.
