Using an unlocked GSM phone in Mexico?


I'm going back to Mexico City in February. I want to have a mobile phone with me while I'm there so my friends in Mexico City can call me. I also want to be able to make calls to and receive calls from USA.

After consulting "The Google", here's my plan:
1. Buy an unlocked GSM phone (Motorola) from eBay or Craig's List.
2. Buy a Mexico or International SIM card online.
3. Travel to Mexico City and enjoy.

Will this work? What am I missing? What's involved with buying/activating the SIM card?

Thanks!

I guess, you can also buy a 30 dollars gsm cell phone once you're in Mexico and use it, they sometimes comes with promos so they give you more money to talk or stuff like that.

Or ask your friends maybe one of them has an extra cellphone in no use, i myself have like 3 cellphones without sim card, old models that i don't want anymore

Hope it helps

call your cell phone company and tell them to put you on the international plan, it works take my word
