So i search through crackberry forums and could not find what I was looking for. I am going to Europe (Denmark, Germany, Czech, Belgium, Netherlands etc.) for 2 weeks this summer. I have a strom with verizon. I want to be able to use my phone for calls back to the U.S., text, web, email. What should I do and how should I do it?

you will need to get Verizon to activate your global service before you leave See this thread and see if it helps. Safe travels,

EDIT: scroll down and see lowespitt's post-that may help. FYI, I searched GSM in Europe to find this

you'll also want to look into a feature called idial for international calling. Try calling in and talking to their global services department

Call Global Services.

I just went to those same countries over the Christmas Holiday. They'll prorate your data. I believe it's $60 per month for Europe. Texts will be $.05 incoming and $.25 or $.50 outgoing.

Phone calls will range from $.99 - $1.49 or so per minute.

So i just pay $60 and I am good?
