Click to expand... ATT has an International Data option, 20Mb for $24.99/month. Depending how long you're gone, 20MB is not much. What I do is: Keep Data Roaming Turned off. Turn "Push" off. Change the "check email" setting to "Manual" Then when I want to check email, post a tweet, update a blog, etc, I just turn Data Roaming on and do what I need to do. I don't use it for general web browsing, You Tube, etc while in Europe. So far its worked well.
