AU SIM card.

I have an au smartphone, but the phone isn't the greatest. I am thinking of purchasing a used au smartphone. My question is: Will I be able to use the SIM card I have now in the used phone and still be able to call people and use my au data plan?

    Yes, if it is the same carrier then I think it will be fine. A better solution is to buy a new SIM free smartphone on the internet, it should cost just a little bit more that a used smartphone.

    Yes! It's cheaper to buy used au phone though the problem with those used phone is usually the battery.

    Thank you for your answers. Though I haven't do it yet, I have decided to buy a dual sim free phone and see what happens. A student of mine uses a zen phone and said that when she travels to another country, she buys a SIM card at the airport on arrival and pops it in.seems to be working fine for her.

    If you are going to use it to another au smart phone then yes it will definitely work.

November 11th is Pocky/Pretz day, with the date (11/11) meant to resemble the popular snack icons. Do you have a favorite flavor of Pocky or Pretz? Are you a fan of the traditional flavors (e.g. chocolate or strawberry Pocky) or have any limited-time/special flavors taken your fancy?

What's a Japanese autumn tradition you've really come to love?

I mentioned in a blog yesterday that one of the things I love about autumn is the yakiimo warmers that pop up in convenience stores, supermarkets, and farmer's markets at this time of year. What's an autumn tradition that you've come to love during your years here? It could be anything...food-related things, autumn festivals you really enjoy, or possibly something else entirely!
