Hey,
I'm going to Europe for a month and want to use my iPhone. Does anyone know of any cool apps for traveling in Europe, or apps that will let me use the internetz/make calls without paying a fortune?

shit, that sucks.
what about recieving text messages? do i just have to wait until i get back to get them all?

call your provider, they usually have international plans.

you have ATT? you can get texts... like 50 cents a piece of something. Just don't use data unless connected to wifi. Period. Unless it's life or death as it's like 19.95mb I think.
When I was in MX, I think texts were 25 cents, but data rate always seems to remain the same.

Try to jump onto wi-fi where ever possible. Then use things like facebook to send messages rather than text when you are.
If you're phone's unlocked you might be able to buy a Pay as you go sim for the country you're in and use that instead. Not sure on how much cheaper it would be though.

buy local sim cards?
whenever i come to the UK a £10 sim get's me all the texts and internet i need for a few weeks.

having your phone locked doesn't help.
