You could try the United mobile sim card. It offers free incoming in the Bahamas. Outgoing to the US are 39eurocents which is very cheap! It is the cheapest option. You can buy the card from here: http://www.united-mobile.com/affiliate/1011.asp?c=13

Be aware that United Mobile doesn't work with all unlocked gsm quadbands. When I try calling out from my Motorola v190, I see "network busy" on the screen and then the call dies. This occurs no matter what network I use and it isn't helped when I call from the United Mobile calling menu. On the other hand, United Mobile does work with a Mototorola v3 and a Nokia 6610.

I had not heard this. Can anyone tell me if the UM sim will work with my unlocked, quadband Motorola L6 SLVR?
