Just used Etislut in NY and text DAY100 (100MB) to 1010 and they charge AED35/24hours, just turn on DATA roaming on the iPhone 5 for a change. Normally its turned off outside UAE. Whats App is working fine. AED35 is equal to 17 sms or one beer for a day! Check balance on *177#. I promise, I don't work for them!
Other options available 25MB for a day too, text DAY25 to 1010.
Not bad for a change.
