Some neccesary point to draw the attention at,if you want to buy a phone abroad are: - The system network CDMA or GSM.Make sure it match to your carrier,if your carrier is in GSM you should only buy one that is in GSM. = The Frequency of the phone and your carrier are also must be match. = The last is,the phone you want to buy must be UNLOCKED to any carrier. I have a look at the phone in the link,it is a CDMA 800/1900Mhz and as far as i know,a provider under CDMA technology in Ireland run its network under the frequency 450Mhz.Guess it mean...OK !!

Sounds awesome. Maybe this will help: http://www.backpackersjobsearch.com

First, learn how to spell months. Second, learn proper grammar. No employer in the US or Ireland will want you if you are as uneducated as you appear.
3 :
Yes, but it is important (visa wise) to go within 6 months after you graduate. The UK offers special visas to those who have recently graduated. Check out a program called bunac, it will be very helpful. Hope you enjoy yourself. www.bunac.org

Yes it is possible for you to study in Ireland. Before you do anything else, firstly you need decide which course you wish to do and decide on a university that you want to attend. This could be based on the schools academic record, how much it would cost to study there and/or the location, maybe you have a specific city in Northern Ireland that you want to be in. Once you have decided on the above, you need to contact your chosen university and request that they send you all of the relevant paperwork for admission as an international student including details about the course which you intend to study. Then look at what the requirements are to be accepted and make sure you have everything in order before sending off your application of admission to the University. Once you hear back from the university via a letter of acceptance and an I-20 you can then begin to start your visa application. You will be applying for a student (INF 5) visa. To begin this process you just visit the website below, read the requirements and procedure process and make sure you have everything required before filling in your application. http://www.britainusa.com/visas/articles_show_nt1.asp?i=65009&L1=41000&a=41074 Good luck and enjoy yourself!

Hello? What's all this talk about Britain and the UK???? Ireland is neither. And I believe the young man would like to work in Ireland not study here. Sorry, Joe, as a US citizen, you have no legal right to work here. U.S. passport holders must have a valid work permit before they are allowed to enter into employment in Ireland. However, donĂ¢€™t give up. A visa-required national who has an offer from an employer in Ireland of employment may be given a working visa by an Irish Embassy or Consulate. Contact the embassy in Washington: http://www.irelandemb.org There are also Irish consulates in New York, Boston, Chicago and San Francisco. Good Luck.

Hello, In order for your iPhone to work in another country you will have to unlock it. If you bought it with a 2 year contract or you will be fined. Just ask AT&T how much it would be as it will depend on how long you stayed with them.

Visa, Mastercard and American Express are recognized in most countries. Watch out for fees.
2 :
Actually, they may not in all places because Europe has a chip system that we do not have in the US. You need to call each card & talk to someone who knows about the European system. Also, they may be hefty fees for each transaction (to convert the exchange rate), so you need to ask what they are & how much.
3 :
Yes they will if they except the logo. The only catch is if they do not take american money here is what happens. As of that day they will do this.. Euro- American money Have fun there Bill
