Anyone used a GSM phone in the UK? I was wondering what kind of cost per minute they charged when calling back to the US and also calling inside the UK. No one at Cingular seems to know. I've called tech support 3 times and went to 2 different stores.

Their website shows $1.29/min.

I can't find it on the web site, can you point it out?

That's what the website shows for my zip code (California GSM service)...

my advice about Cingular international roaming: DON'T!
