Alli,
Because I am paranoid - can I just pop the sim card out, put it somewhere safe to make absolutly sure I do not get any charges? I really have no use of cell minutes and/or texts while I am there so I do not mind missing calls and texts. I really just want to use it for the camara, my checkbook program, facebook, etc over wifi at hopefully abundant wifi spots. The non-phone part of the iPhone will still work without the sim card installed, right? WiFi?
Also, anyone recommend any app that might send my voicemails to my email account to download and listen to that way? Not sure if it exists but thought i'd check. I think google voice may do this and I do have an account/number but have never used it. Anything that might email my tests to me also??
