Will/Can any other american carrier match this?

Cheap international roaming has not been much of a selling point for US wireless carriers in the past. International roaming been almost an afterthought and treated as a luxury item. American consumers have been willing to accept overpriced international roaming (with the exception of a few you find here). I think the word will spread but understand that T-Mobile's rates are not always the best. On some cruise ships they are much higher than ATT's.

Almost any carrier can match these rates. The only question is if they will choose to.
