Just ordered a Beyond Wireless SIM chip for myself. The price per minute, no daily surcharge, and coverage where I needed it was an irresistable combination. Will swap as needed with a Riiing chip in my phone.
I agree it would be good for international visitors to the US, but there is one sticky point:
Their website says "Shipping & Returns: We do not accept international orders.
US ORDERS ONLY" on their shipping policies page.
Hopefully, a lot of retailers will be interested in this product so an international visitor could still buy a kit at a convenience store or cell phone kiosk in a mall, and call a tollfree number to activate it. Maybe it could also be indirectly purchased through a web retailer that would ship abroad.
