| iPhone: Data Tips for International Roamers | |||
| We know that the Mobile Internet is indispensable to you. That's why we want to remind you: Domestic data use on iPhone is unlimited within the U.S., Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. However, international roaming rates apply for voice and data usage outside domestic coverage area. | International data roaming can be expensive. For example, opening an email with a 5 megapixel picture attachment or downloading a 3 minute video on YouTube uses about 2MB of data. The cost would be nearly $40 based on pay-per-use international data rates of $.0195/KB. | With iPhones many robust applications, its natural for users to use more data on their iPhone than they would using other handsets or PDA devices. | What can you do to minimize international data charges? Consider purchasing an international data package. To see list of countries where these packages discounted data rates apply, click here. |
