GSM "roaming" in Mexico

I thought I'd see if anyone here has used their GSM phone in Mexico, whether "roaming" on the 1900 MHz networks there, or by purchasing a pre-paid SIM card while visiting.

We're going to be there for a week in an area of good coverage by both TELCEL and MOVISTAR networks... I think I'd rather buy a pre-paid SIM to save money, but have no idea where to go for such things when we arrive.

Any advice from more well-travelled FT'ers? I've been strictly a domstic flyer, 'till now. :-)

I'm an AT&T wireless user here in the US and I had no problems roaming with Telcel while in San Felipe a few months ago.
