T-Mobile may not be the biggest wireless carrier, but they're the best for international travelers. They carry a lot of quad-band phones, which work in more parts of more countries than tri-band phones do. They're also open to activating exotic phones from abroad, and after 90 days they let you unlock your phone to use on foreign cellular systems at lower rates than roaming would offer. Sure, they don't have the industry's best coverage, but they're far more honest about coverage than their competitors are thanks to their online Personal Coverage Check. And their prices are great. Check out the Motorola V188, a phone I won't review because I'm just too busy – though that's not the V188's fault.

Motorola V188 (T-Mobile)
Lowest price: $10 (sort of; if you buy one for $29.99, you get two more free)
Key features: Speakerphone, quad-band global roaming, MP3 ringtones, EDGE semi-high-speed data
Pros: Cute. A good set of voice-focused features for the price.
Cons: No camera.
My favorite add-on: Motorola Mobile Phone Tools software and a USB cable turn this into an EDGE modem for your laptop. Surf at double dialup speeds anywhere T-Mobile has signal – whoo!
Would I recommend it based on my very little information? Yes. This looks like a little winner of a voice handset for T-Mobilizers.

Check back tomorrow for the last phone I won't review, unless there's a New York City transit strike. In which case, who knows?
