Need a cell phone in Europe

by doug vitale . Updated 17 years, 6 months ago

A friend of mine is going to Europe for a couple of months. He is going to be in several countries in western Europe.

He wants to get a cell phone with a service plan that will get him coverage in all the countries he visits. He also wants to be able to get his AOL email on his cell phone.

So I’m looking for suggestions as to what the best plan of action would be. Would he be able to get a phone here in the USA and make all the arrangements for the service he will need, or should he wait until he gets to England and get a phone and service agreement there?

What would the best phone be in this case, a Blacberry or perhaps the T-Mobile G1?

He already has a cell phone with Verizon as the carrier, if that matters.

Thanks so much for your help.
