Merry Christmas Everyone,
Hey I am going to New Orleans for 10 days starting tomorrow(monday). I live in Canada and have a unlocked Iphone 4. Can I get a pay as you go sim card? I guess it would be on the AT&T network. I am willing to pay about $30-40 for the 10 days. I don't need alot of airtime but it is the data that I need(100-200mb for the 10 days, email, some websites and google maps).

If I can get this can anyone help me out where to get it near the French Q in New Orleans.

Thanks

Sean
 
Yes you can get PAYG. However, from when I used my iPhone on PAYG, the data is not "guaranteed". By that I mean with Rogers, you could only really make safari work or something like that but mail would have problems. This may not be the case now as I no longer have Rogers PAYG but have Bell.

When I was in England this summer I was able to purchase a PAYG sim and got data without having to mess around with many settings.
