Just one more thing on this subject, if you please. If all does not go well, and I have to chuck these phones, I'd like to be able to keep the UM SIMs and pop them in another couple of cheapo phones. Can anyone suggest phones I can look for on eBay that you KNOW the UM SIMs will work in?
You folks have already suggested the Nokia 6610, and the Motorola V3. These phones are really just for taking to Europe in October for me and my wife to use while there. (We are tied into a long term Verizon contract, or I would simply go with Cingular or T-Mobile, and use their overseas service.)
Anyway, we really just want simple ones -- the Motorola Razr looks great, but we don't need all the bells and whistles such as a camera, etc. Also, even on eBay it is spendy.
Any suggestions as to what models/brands (flip phones preferred) I should look for?
