Hi, My one of friend have to move to Dubai as part of Job. I want to know which all possible ways of cheapest communication are present from Dubai to India and vice versa ? Like Skype, Tango is blocked there. Not sure about Whatsapp though. Main communication requirements are Text...

Using a galaxy sl i9003, was using a bold 3 previously. Not sure why but the battery life now is stupid + no instant email alerts!? And most of all no BBM (If i use whatsapp, i have to keep my internet on, and it drains my battery like loose motions affected guy) Time to switch back to BB?
