I'm taking my Incredible to Israel in two days. I already plan on setting up the unlimited international data plan for 64.99 while im there (a month) but am curious if there were any alternative apps to call back home to the USA via my data plan (not using minutes at 1.99 per minute) or to text back and forth from home. I'd normally ask my friends to text me using Gtalk, but my girlfriend doesn't have a smartphone and can't do that. I'm gonna ask VZW to block all texts, but is there any app I can throw on the phone to still accept / send texts for free? I do have a texting plan with VZW, but international texting plans are ridiculous.
Thanks.
Thanks.
