I in fact did exactly this while in Jamaica one year ago, Jeannie. I did two things, to be double-sure that I would not incur any outlandish charges: one, I did leave it in Airplane Mode and two, I removed the Sim card the entire time I was down there. And yes, I simply used it as a "mini-computer," going on to wireless from the place I stayed or using another place's wireless. It was extremely easy! BTW, to get the Sim card out easily, you use that little silver thingy that you said, "what the heck is this thing for?!" when you first opened up your iPhone package; you stick the "sharper" end of it into the teeny hole that's on the top of your iPhone, just to the right of your headphone jack (at least, that's where it is on my iPhone 3G). If you don't have the little silver thingy anymore, straighten out a small paper clip & stick that in the hole. Your Sim card will pop out - you just need to make sure that you put it somewhere safe so that you can reinsert it upon returning back to the U.S. or Canada! Using that iPhone as a computer saved me a WHOLE LOTTA trouble - it's a great thing!
