Hello,

This message is for the iPhone users who are traveling internationally.

AT&T recently started to offer a "50 MB International Data Package" for the 
iPhone ($59.99 per month) within 29 countries* Previously, only 20 MB plan 
was available for international data usage, which was hardly enough for an 
iPhone user who are more prone to consume more data due to the nature of the 
iPhone's web browsing and other capabilities.

Even with the 50MB international data plan, iPhone users should be mindful 
of their cellular data usage when traveling overseas. But, this is 
definitely an improvement on AT&T's part.

*Countries include: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, Czech 
Republic, Denmark, Egypt, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Hong Kong, 
Hungary, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, 
Poland, Portugal, Romania, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and 
Taiwan. These countries are subject to change. Please view DataConnect 
Global "Select" countries for an accurate list.
**Overage rate is $.005/KB (approx $5 per MB) within these countries. Rate 
outside of these 29 countres is $.0195/KB (approx $20 per MB). AT&T offers 
these iPhone International traveling tips to help you keep control of data.
