I am thinking, for ease of use for my in-laws, I might go to the T-Mobile store and get a "global" roaming Prepaid phone from them with a US number. That way, my in-laws can call to a US number. It looks like the cost would be $0.99/minute. Rather steep, but the convenience of it all might just be worth it (and the high cost might possibly keep the "talk" to a minimum ).

T-Mobile has that? I haven't seen one of those. However, look at the international SIM section on this site. It sort of depends if you want to pay the tab for the in-laws calls or you want them to pay the tab. There are several cards that feature "free incoming" calls in most of Europe.
