Cheapest Global Solution for Occaisional Travel?

Need ideas.

Our phones that we use regularly won't work (for one thing they are CDMA and the trip we are planning now will need GSM).

I was thinking of buying the cheapest unlocked global-ready phone I can find. I see that Verizon offers a month-to-month global plan--does anyone know if that applies to non-Verizon customers?

Any other ideas? All will be welcome:)

Trip we are planning now is Beijing to Moscow (or maybe Vladivostock to Moscow) via rail, if that makes a difference, but what I am looking for is something that can be activated when needed and sleep happily in a drawer when not.

Get it off eBay
I'm being deadly serious BTW, best cheaply phone for travelling if you stick Froyo or CM on it
