You may consider getting a Skype out account as well -- very low cost -- and that way you could have two methods for calling home... I am not aware of a particular site that offers definitive information. Have a good trip and enjoy the experience!

We will be in Beijing for the Olympics and we are considering bringing our Vonage box with us. The hotel has internet service but I've been told that the Chinese government blocks Voip. I'm having trouble finding information on that. Do you have any? Or could you direct me to a number or webstie that can answer my questions. Any help would be appreciated. Hi,
