I'm not sure exactly what you mean. Are you moving there or just visiting? If you're moving there and you get a new carrier, then they'll tell you what your settings are. If not, then you keep your settings as-is.

Since you will be there for 20 days, you may want to look at getting a 1 month plan with a carrier for where you will be (but if you are traveling all over this may not be a good option). Basically, you just need a GSM card for a local carrier if you can come up with that. Int'l Roaming charges will kill you if you aren't careful. YOU may want to put the NoData cab on your phone so that you can turn off GPRS access to avoid that too.

Check out http://www.fring.com. Its free and it works on teh Wizard. Will allow you to do Skype, GoogleTalk, and more from your phone, so you could go into an internet cafe and tap into their WiFi and then make VoIP calls that way (get you some SkypeOut credits or similar and it will be a lot cheaper I would think).

Good luck and enjoy!
