been in the USA now for 2 days, and mobile connectivity is failing hard.
It appears that prepaid voice and data in Australia is way ahead of the USA.
I took four phones. Qantas screwed me in flight and didn't supply my international sim cards I pre ordered. My wife's phone didn't want to roam. One phone won't connect to USA network, and you can't even buy a prepaid data plan for a micro sim. So I have one phone that is on the network, with no data, and this shitty hotel wifi.
It will be at least 2 days until I can get near an AT&T store.
It may be weeks before I am back online.
Oh yeah, funnily enough, I expected the USA to be full of Americans , but so far, in Los Angeles at least, it's full of dudes that speak Spanish or some shit.
