Smartphone apps from Rick Steves

http://www.smartertravel.com/travel-advice/travel-smarter-with-smartphone.html?id=9134134 I found this article on using smartphone apps while traveling to be EXTREMELY helpful. I constantly warn my clients to find out exactly what their phone plan coverage is so they are not surprised (read - shocked) when the bill comes in. I just returned from South Africa and was amazed at the number of places I found free WiFi so I could use my iPad.
