[quote=Anonymous]With Verizon, the first question is how new your iPhone is. The Verizon iPhone 4S is what Verizon calls a "world phone" (has GSM built in as well as CDMA), but the Verizon iPhone 4 only had CDMA. Most of the world runs on GSM networks, although some countries also have CDMA. If you do have a GSM-capable iPhone, you can sign up for an international data and calling plan for just the length of your trip. I am not sure how much that is these days. Alternatively, Verizon will usually unlock your phone on request (unlike ATT). Once unlocked, you can sign up with a local cell plan, including pay-per-use cards. You have to get it unlocked before leaving the US, though, and I think you have to have owned the phone at least 2 months, or some other weird restrictions. There are still international plans for CDMA-only Verizon phones, it's just that there are fewer countries in which that will be useful.[/quote]
