For an iPHONE, yes, I can, and expect to sign up for the ability to receive and make phone calls from Sweden & Finland. That's cheap.
DATA roaming is NOT cheap. To get what I pay $15.00 for per month here in the US (200 MB/mo), would cost me $199.99 from AT&T for a month!
3G iPhones (not iPhone 3g...)are sold in the USA locked to AT&T, so I cannot put a 'local' SIM into it and have it work. And no, spending $700 on an unlocked phone isn't in the cards.
iPADs are sold carrier-unlocked, so I can, in theory, use it in any 3G country where I can obtain a local micro-SIM card for data access.
