I'm doing the same with the sim card. I reserved mine online.

In regards to Skype, if people travel alot, you can actually buy a phone number from Skype, I forget how much the number costs per month. But you can also look into MagicJack. I have a couple of them actually. I will be trying that in Aruba. But I also travel with my home phone number via Vonage Companion.

MagicJack is like $40 bucks for the year. And you can pick your area code. So getting a NY one is not hard to do then all calls in and out will be local. You can just plug a standard phone into it, or just use a headset on the computer.
