International roaming rates are pretty stiff -- have you considered
getting your phones unlocked and using local SIM cards?

Roaming info for Mexico is at
<http://www.gsmworld.com/roaming/gsminfo/cou_mx.shtml>
Pegaso Comunicaciones y Sistemas, S.A. De C.V (movistar) is shown to
have "high" quality coverage in Cancun. But see
<http://www.cancunsource.com/cell_phones.php>, which claims TelCel is
the best in Cancun. Telcel reportedly has EDGE service.
