$49 International Cell Phone Aims to be Affordable for all Travelers

Mobal Communications has developed the $49 Mobal World Phone, an international cell phone that works in over 140 countries with the same number, and has no monthly fees (travelers only pay per call). The company developed the phone on the premise that the option to take an international cell phone while traveling abroad should be affordable to all US travelers, not just the rich.

(PRWEB) August 23, 2006 -- The reason why this service is needed is that currently, only about 20% of US cell phones will work outside of the US due to technological incompatibilities. This meant that travelers whose phones would not work either had to upgrade their domestic cell phone at great expense (if their carrier even offered an international service), or rent an international cell phone for their trip, which can cost from $50 per week.

At just $49, the Mobal World Phone has been priced to be more affordable than upgrading and more cost effective than renting, even to those travelers who only need it just in case — because there are no monthly fees, if they do not need to make a call, they don't pay a penny.

Also, the service never expires, so this means that travelers can take the international cell phone on future trips for years to come, and they can always be contacted on the same number — the caller does not even need to know which country they are in to reach them.

The Mobal World Phone can be ordered online from www.mobalrental.com , it comes with everything it needs to start using it, including a free international travel adapter set. It also has a 60-day money back guarantee, in case travelers are still not sure it is the best option for them.
