In response to "partly your IM. most countries have GSM networks. you need is a phone that isn't locked to one company's network (ie. ask for an unlocked phone). -- nm" by mafic

elaboration:

with an unlocked phone, you could pick up a SIM card in whatever country you were in, pop it in the phone, and bam! working phone with a local phone number. a locked phone might still work on another country's network, but you'd be stuck with whatever roaming agreement your home provider had with the local network.
