Thanks for those links. Interesting forum.

Movistar is looking better and better now, for voice. I like the single rate to anywhere in North America, saves messing around with callback for infrequent short calls. Plus, their prepaid roaming is now very impressive - most countries covered, and 51c/min incoming in the US (with Telcel, it's $1.60 except in some border areas). And, the minimum running cost is around 200 pesos per year compared to Telcel's 600 pesos per year.

I still prefer Telcel's approach to data, unlimited for a given time, rather than the Movistar data bundles (but the cheapest Movistar one is good for very low users). Movistar has very little 3G.
