ABOUT PHONE & MODEM ACCESSORIES
Do I need a phone or modem accessory?
It is unlikely that you will a phone or modem laptop accessory, unless you are traveling abroad and do not expect to have access to a wireless connection. If you do think you may need access to the internet via a telephone connection, Going In Style can provide telephone adapter plugs for all countries.
Note: Cell phone users. If you are planning to take your cell phone abroad, first check with your service provider to see what service is available for your specific cell phone and calling plan. Rick Steves recommends that you consider buying a European phone and using it when you travel to Europe. You can then purchase SIM cards for $25-$50 with a phone number and starter credit. If you have an America tri-band phone that is unlocked for other SIM cards, you can take your American phone to Europe and buy an European SIM card there when you arrive.

IN SUMMARY – ADAPTER & CONVERTER FINDER
- If you are bringing an American appliance or electronic device, you will need an Adapter Plug for almost every country in order to plug into their electrical outlets.
- If that appliance or electronic device is not dual-voltage and you are visiting a country with 230 volt electricity, you will need either a Voltage Converter or a Transformer.
- If you are planning to run your non dual-voltage appliance or electronic device continuously, you will need a Transformer.
- If you are taking along any equipment that requires that you plug into the local telephone system, you will need a Telephone Adapter (and possibly more equipment depending on your situation).
