The only weird thing I found out about T-Mobile is that if you receive a call and do not answer, You are still charged the airtime while the person leaves a message. I am going to disable voicemail while I'm there.

I have T-mobile and wasn't able to access my voicemail while in Aruba. All of a sudden when I got home, there were all my voicemails! Any idea why?

At&t would charge $1.99 a minute for that privledge , though he had a great signal. Cheaper to bring a laptop and use WI-FI.

We found that you can use your own cell phone, just puchase a SIM card in Aruba. It's the least expensive way to go. Just make sure you contact your cell phone provider a week or two in advance to get the password to unlock your phone. We have Cingular and found that we had to use the PIN code that came with our Carribbean SIM card first then we entered Cingulars password and that was it. Buy a primo card for local calls and a Ventaha card for international calls.
