Or puchase one single card while on my first stop (Hong Kong) that will work in all three cities? I'm open to any advice.

Also, what about outgoing calls from my wife (in the U.S.) to me? My wife has a cell phone, but we don't have home phone service. What is the best bet for having her call me?
Try www.pingo.com You charge your account with $10, use an access number in foreign countries to call the US for about 10 c per minute
