Does anyone have any experience with international prepaid SIM cards (that can be bought in the US) such as the ones from Telestial?
My mother is going to be visiting Thailand for a while. She wants to take a cell phone with her, and In order to keep complications to a minimum and prevent Bill Shock, we want to get her a basic unlocked cell phone and prepaid SIM card that can be used in Thailand before she leaves the US (mainly so we can set it up, show how to use it, and know the phone number ahead of time). This will be used strictly for International calls - no data, no SMS, and probably no local (in Thailand) calls. It will just be used for emergencies and perhaps the occasional (short) status update.
