So, just buy a Moldovan SIM. Are calls from PMR to Moldova international ones (or even barred)???

Rates for Moldovan numbers differ. They are much higher and sometimes is hard to get connection, but its not as bad as other way around. There was time when you could call PMR numbers from Moldova at all.

I called friend of mine.And was told the brand new phone are available for USD25 +. So price is not an issue.

Hehe, traveling to non-exisiting countries may always bring some surprises. But, PMR is a hard case - eg. Northern Cyprus at least has GSM

Northern Cyprus is easy. I was there several time. On other side, with PMR CDMA phone you have free incoming calls when roaming in Odesskaja oblast of Ukraine.

I kinda' like non-existing countries. I plan to move to Theory. You know that, "In Theory everything works."

Me too. There is very nice live in PMR(e.g. Northern Cyprus) once you know the right way around.
