Best SIM card for May trip to La Paz and San Luis Cabo?

eurouser · 09-04-2009, 01:49

I have my non-functional Yackie SIM. Forget that! I have the SIM card that came with the A437 go phone. It is an AT&T GoPhone SIM. It may not be provisioned anymore, I have not used it for over half a year. I also have a German eplus SIM. I'm guessing that would be real expensive in Mexico, but I'll check. Other than that, I have my Sprint phone, but that is a whopping $1.69 per minute in Mexico now.

I'll be in staying in La Paz and sightseeing from there. I just fly in and out of SJD (Cabo). A SIM card based in La Paz might do.

In order to check my VOIP providers rate to a La Paz mobile I need to put in a La Paz mobile number into there rate calculator. It would be nice to know what they will charge me.

TelCel might be okay. I was reading various comments about hassles getting SIMs in Mexico now. I would hate to get there and not be able to get one. Can they be shipped?
