Yankees come back in the 10th. Final Yankees 7 Rays 6. Btw guys my Fiancee got me an I Phone so now I will be able to still post here while in Guatemala. I just have to figure out how to use it.![]()
Ron honestly I have no idea, I'm not good with electronics all I know is it is a Samsung and my Fiancee set everything up for me so it is easier for me to surf the Internet. I use my regular Computer because I have bad eyesight so this is going to a challenge for sure....is it a "global" iphone?
...I love my Macbook Pro and would not trade it for anything and will never go back to a Windows based laptop...just my personal preference...I tried an iphone for couple of months but eventually sold the iphone and went back to my Samsung Galaxy... as far as smartphones go, I just much prefer the android format over ios...plus, I didn't care for the iphone keyboard at all.
...just my 2 cents.

Don't make my Head Spin Ron. I haven't even read the book yet. Honestly I really didn't want it because I have no idea how to use them but like you said as long as I can keep in touch that's all that matters. I will ask him tomorrow he is already in bed....a Samsung Iphone ?...lol, Lil, there's no such animal...doesn't really matter anyway, I know what you meant...as long as you can keep in touch.

I will later....well, you could always wake him up..."rudely".![]()

I'm too old for that Shit Ron....^^^once you said that you were "not good with electronics" I saw no need to bore you with technical stuff.

Lil, what Ron is asking you is (1) what version is your iPhone, a 6 or 7 series; and (2) what technology model #, there are models for GSM (europe, parts of asia), CDMA (north america) or combo GSM/CDMA which is also referred to as the global iphone. Which version you have also depends on the carrier, AT&T vs Verizon or Sprint. Some carriers in North America only get CDMA phones that don't work in other parts of the world.
If your phone is CDMA/GSM type you should be okay. However there are a couple of caveats, if the phone is "locked" or under contract, you may not be able to drop in another SIM card, and if so than likely only for data which it sounds to me your intended purpose. You can actually test this before you go, just buy a cheap prepaid data SIM card here and test out. Then when you arrive in Guatemala, buy a couple prepaid data SIM cards. If its not locked than you can just by a local SIM card at the airport when you arrive in Guatemala.
Now if that isn't enough....keep in mind that most of the world is still 3G, and therefore doesn't have 4G speeds. This means it could be wickedly slow.
Now alternatively, if you are staying somewhere that has good WiFi....than just ignore all that above telcom stuff and in settings put your phone in airplane mode first and then manually toggle WiFi back on. Its really good idea to leave bluetooth off when traveling. Apple folks used to think they were immune, but turns out most of the major hacks going on these days is via Apple products because their users were mostly security ignorant. Heck, even the CIA's Apple hacks got hacked....no honor among theives.
If you get stuck and need to figure out an answer while traveling, I highly recommend TripAdvisors, some really good folks there. Whenever in a new city, I try to find their sponsored walking tours, always a lot of fun to get a local perspective usually from an American expat.
