It doesn't really matter if the carrier in Hungary supports the treo or not. It is a GSM phone that meets the GSM standard. So it will work where ever you go. A lot of folks will buy a prepaid SIM card when they get to their destination rather than pay international rates with Cingular or whom ever. |
Hi,
Yes, millerhifi is correct. I just went to Italy and used the local SIM card to save on calls and I was able to use the Treo as if I was back in the Great White North. The Italian GSM network SIM card and number is good for a year!
I used the web browser there and it worked great, just like back home.
I do not know how long you will be in Hungary, but if there is a GSM carrier, it will work since it is quad band. Pannon is the local provider in Hungary for voice and data in GSM.

I am not a Treo scientist, but I am a guy that loves his Treo and discovers many new things about it and how to use it.
Yes, it plays mp3's and even videos. But it is not an mp3 player where you can alter the sub and treble. You'll need a program for that.
Good luck and don't forget to try thr borsh!
