Default Mobile Phones
Can anyone please tell me if we can get sim cards once over in Aus. Or do we need to buy new phones over there. If so can you tell us what would be a good card to buy.

Not long now, we move to Townsville on 28th April.

Thanks

Your phones will work, just make sure they have all been unlocked...

You can get sim cards before you go... 0044

Can be handy to be able to let people know what your number is going to be before you leave...
