Hi everyone! I am using my boyfriends account atm, so I am not actually from the USA, but from Holland.
This summer I'm going on a vacation to Colorado, and I was wondering what to do with my phone if I don't want my bills to be huge. I was wondering if it is an idea to buy an american simcard and put that in my recent phone (it is simlock free). I have a triband phone so it shouldn't be a problem to get reception in the usa, although i am aware that Colorado has many parts were reception might not be there or just bad.

What do you think i should do? I saw this on the internet, and it looks pretty cheap:

With this calling to the Netherlands would be just as cheap as calling to another usa number.
I just don't know if it's a good deal or not, or if there are better ways of calling cheaply in the usa.

Any ideas?
