				| I'm not too sure how much the rental service is but you can buy a second hand phone for 40,000 or so. Have a look in the Cellphone thread to see where. If you're staying 2 months that would be much more economical than renting one as far as I'm aware. |

Yup... stop at the first 3 phone shops your come across and get a USED phone and put it on prepaid service.  All you need is your passport and some money. 
 
 
30k-60k won for the phone. NO HOOKUP fee. Pay as you go. 
 
Doesn't get any easier. No used phones at the first 3 shops... go to #4. 
 
 
The phone rental counters at the airport are fine for a  week or so... but then the costs far exceed what it will cost you to buy a used phone. |

				| I bought a used phone at techno mart for 80K with camera and MP3. Pay as you go with KTF. Not the best deal but I was sick of looking. |
