Marc:
We also have Cingular now -- switched from Verizon in May -- pro's and con's but we're in for 2 years. My DH has a Motorola 551, which is supposed to be compatible for use out of the USA like the Razr. We were told that we have to have the service for a while, that left as an undefined term, and then call customer service to arrange for it. That's what they said, anyhow. We haven't tested it yet. (I have a lower end Motorola 180 that will NOT work internationally, they said.) So let us all know what you find out and what you decide. ;)
