A bit off topic, but it can be useful to have an account with a voice over internet (VOIP) provider on a phone or tablet. On my Pacific Coast trip we had to made a reservation for lodging, I did not have Sprint coverage and my touring partner did not have AT&T coverage. But the restaurant had wifi so I could make a call on my phone using wifi and VOIP. Another example, I was in Europe and one of my credit cards stopped working, I called the credit card company using VOIP from the hostel I was staying at.
