cell phone use in hungary?

Hey, I am going to Hungary and I was wondering what is the most affordable way to have a phone. ATT give me an international plan that has text, data for $40 and a 99 cent/minute phone rate on my IPhone. I also have a Tmobile blackberry that takes sim card but not sure how many minutes you get for the chargeable ones. It only say price. Anyone?

    If that offer has a flat fee for data use for however long, I think it is a good thing.

    99 cent/minute is rather high, but if you hardly ever make a call that is not too bad.

    You can buy a local sim to call locally and use your Iphone for data.

    On the other hand, if the Data is not a flat fee for the time you are in Europe, but an amount per time or per a fixed amount of Data, do not use it.

    In that case, only use your Iphone for Wifi where available and block all its other connections for the duration, use a local sim for calls and do without internet at your fingertips for a while.
