Even if nowadays we communicate through sophisticated mobile phones and we are reachable at all times, in rural and remote Australian areas be prepared of not being connected with the world for a while. So "what's up" with limited mobile phones coverage? Easy peasy! To get a signal, keep driving to the nearest petrol station. Over there you may find landline telephones too. Incredible but true, they are not extinct yet. Some exemplars survive in Down Under. Any way, once you move to Australia, buy a pre-paid SIM card for your device. Among the major Australian mobile virtual network operators: Telstra, Optus, Virgin Mobile I was recommended to go with Telstra because it offers the best coverage.
