I'm still confused. We do have a quad band, worldphone, T-Mobil. I was able to call her from Spain last year but there were lots of charges since we didn't change to the Spanish sim card (it was just a short visit) I'm sure she'll figure it out when she gets there. Hopefully she'll pick a cheap phone with a good plan but I wrote down all your helpful suggestions so we can go over them before she leaves. Thanks again.
