I assume your 4S is GSM only. If you are willing, you can just use WiFi.
But if you want cellular data, then I would check with your carrier and see if they have a partnership with one here. Last I heard, AT&T will not allow iPhones on their pay-as-you-go network, which is very limited outside of large cities and highway paths. T-mobile would be another I would check with. US Cellular seems to have a large area of coverage, but I don't know how easy they are to find physically to pick up a SIM card.
Unfortunately, we are pretty backwards here in the US with SIM cards and cell phones. You can find SIM cards in many convenience stores, but the clerks don't know squat about them, so do your research before you get here. And I have not seen any plans for data only.
As we say in Oregon, "Keep Oregon Green, come and spend money!" It used to also include, "and then leave", but I'll drop that part.

Hello,
Need some advice please.
I am an Australian and soon will be travelling overseas to the USA. I plan on my taking my iPhone 4S with me as I would like to check in on Facebook and stuff like that. I wont be using it for calls as I will rely on Facetime, Skype and emails.
So my question is how do I go about getting set up to use my iPhone in the States? Where would I get the SIM card etc?
