Just a small update as I'm really getting interested in this. I'm headed to Aruba this summer, and I checked the local SIM provider, Primo (through SETAR). Their prepaid service offers GPRS for US $0.02/10kb. I spoke to customer service at MINO, and they said that once the software has been downloaded to the phone, expect each call to use 1kb of data access per call. The rate from an Aruba # to a US # is US $0.124/minute, so if you average it out with the data cost, you're still looking at less than $0.13/minute and Primo has free incoming.

If you can find reliable data service, MINO looks awesome!
