[Dasquian Belargic]

I have a couple of things coming in the post, but apart from that (and picking up some sunscreen) I think my shopping is pretty much done...

As I told Dani tho, I will be panicking that I have forgotten something until the moment I am actually met by people at Atlanta airport. I weep for my nerves.

[Redik]

Haha, worry not! What you bring will be appreciated and what you forget wasn't necessary anyway!

Edit: Also, MY vacation begins in 5 days! Gotta love it!

Just did a packing test run.. everything seems to fit :cool

[Han Antilles]

I'll probably start organizing what to bring with me next Sunday and finally pack up on Wednesday. I took Thurs and Friday off already from work, so I'm good to go!

Me and Sam will be checking in on Thurs afternoon at the Marriott, so we'll have our cell phones on in case any of you need a hand to find your badges or need a guide. :)

Just PM either of us to exchange numbers when the time comes.

SWFans + SWEpics = WHEE!

[Dasquian Belargic]

I'd PM you mine now Han but with it being a UK number, I'm not sure how it will work in the US (I know it will work but I don't know what kind of codes you will have to add on to dial it) - but if you want to PM me your number, I will give you a txt when some of us are out and about!

[Dasquian Belargic]

[Karl Valten]

ARGH. SO much to DO before I have to leave.

[Charlotte Tur'enne]

ARGH. SO much to DO before I have to leave.

Get on it, you slackers :mneh

Dudette, I haven't even made a packing list yet. :p :rolleyes

[Han Antilles]

I assume the majority will be hanging with Lilaena, so I probably could get her number instead to find out what is being planned. Not sure if we in the US will get charged an insane amount to text and call international.

[Dasquian Belargic]

I don't think it would cost you anything to receive a call from me - but getting Lilaena's number would work just as well. There are plenty of us going with phones, I think, so we should be able to get in contact one way or another!

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I'll be like a small planetoid with everyone caught in my gravitational pull.

No, really. :lol

[Morgan Evanar]

Jenny, intl. roaming charges are usually lethal (don't ask Mark about his UK data bill some time). I'd keep your phone around as a contact list and not much else. My plan has a crapload of minutes I never use, so you can always borrow one of our phones to make a US call.

[Mandy with an I]

I have unlimited texting, so that's what I always do. If you can text the USA for free, use that instead.

I think I have everyones numbers that I need (people in the same hotel as me, anyway). I can't wait to see my phone bill - I think I'm going to top my 456 text record!

I'm not too worried about overspending anyway since my phone is "pay as you go" - i.e. it's only loaded with a certain amount of call-time, and I can't go over that amount without physically calling up to add more ^_^;

I am looking at temporarily buying a little upgrade for the phone which would significantly reduce calling costs, for calling home, but we'll see.

[Mandy with an I]

You can always pick up a calling card and use that to call home.

I think the whole texting thing is just good in case we get lost lol.

Printed out my schedule, so now it's time to highlight which panels I am going to.

[Mandy with an I]

^ you printed out a million pages?!

[Dasquian Belargic]

Six Days :ohno

[Han Antilles]

^ you printed out a million pages?!

Nah.. there's a link in the schedule page that only prints out the schedule itself and not the entire program. That was only about 20+ pages I believe.

Got most of Friday highlighted for now.

[Yog]

Jenny, intl. roaming charges are usually lethal (don't ask Mark about his UK data bill some time). I'd keep your phone around as a contact list and not much else.

ahahahaah, no kidding. I shared that suspicion, so I actually took a look the rates for calling FROM outside the European Union TO US numbers (I also have "pay as you go", as Jen). But what I did not expect was just how fucked those charges really were. Have a look and laugh at these prices (for convenience, I converted it to dollar values)


Calling US phone from US: $5.78 per minute
Receiving call from US# while in US: $3.30 per minute
Sending SMS to US# while in US: $1.03
Data traffic while in the US: $18.57 per MB :lol!!!

Edit: Hey at least receiving SMS does not cost anything.:rolleyes

[Morgan Evanar]

This was really my point. Get an international calling card when here and use a US cell phone or if possible, land line.

This was really my point. Get an international calling card when here and use a US cell phone or if possible, land line.
Think I found a solution to the phone problems. Available at all major airports in the US at Airport Wireless (http://www.airportwireless.com/) stores. Press Release here (http://newsblaze.com/story/2009070108460300003.pnw/topstory.html).

Basically, it is a prepaid SIM card that you can insert into an unlocked cell phone, and it gives you a US number with favorable call rates. I am leaning toward $20 Unlimited Plan, which gives me free calls during the nights / weekend, and free text messaging.

Ogre smashes it down, Liam burns the rubble. It's a diabolical duo it is.

[Dasquian Belargic]
