I always use a PAYG Bulgarian SIM Card - if you are roaming via your UK service provider, you will usually have to pay to receive calls, as well as to make them, at relatively high rates.

Calls home are best made with the various internet phone services in the resorts, those at Poshtas (Post Offices) being among the cheapest rates.

Whats the chance of finding a wireless hotspot so that I can use Skype on my PDA

If you are going to Sunny Beach, there's a WiFi facility at the Happy Duck - you just need to ask the staff for connection details, apparently.

If you really have to take the Mobile i have Good news on the mobile phone front From 30 August 2007 you'll pay 38p to make a call and 19p to receive a call per minute while roaming on any network due to a change in the law. But texts etc will be based on your service provider i know Orange is 40p per text. Hope this helps

Cheers for that
Just got a message from my provider 02 stating 35p and 18p.
