I am moving to St Thomas @ the end of the month, question to anyone who knows what is the best carrier in St Thomas. I have heard that it is At&T i would like to get into contract with them if they have service that for a data phone that way it would be easier to keep in touch with family and friends and @ the same time useful work work related purposes. If anyone knows I would really appreciate it!Thanks

AT&T has no roaming charges in St. Thomas, however on the North side you will sometimes get transferred over to the Tortola tower and then you get slammed....so far AT&T has removed these mistaken charges but I am sure it will not be indefinite.

Thanks for the advice, just found out that the blackberry uses 1/3 less data than most other phones such the iphone 4 for example so it would be a good smart phone for anyone looking @ saving some money because at the end of the month At&t charges you on the data used so it might be beneficiary to a lot wanting to lower their bill at the end of each month. Thanks for the heads up on the roaming charges on the north side of st thomas ill definitely be aware of that now:)
