New things I been wondering about

11 years ago
I have read up but honestly still somewhat confused on cell phones. For example we both have Iphones. Are these fixing to be expensive paperweights or can service of some type be transferred to them. What kind of service is offered? We have family in the states we will obviously want to stay in contact with but these family members are old school and things such as Skype is totally out of the question. Can anyone give me an idea on what/how they use phones and an approximate rate I can expect?
Medicine - Say for example prescribed medicine that we take such as Nexium for acid reflux. I assume you can get this medication there and will you just find a doctor and have your records transferred or do you just start over of how does that work?
Moving – How did you guys move your stuff? We will not be taking much with us at all when we roll out of the U.S. Some things that can add up like kitchen appliances and whatnot we are not sure what to do. Should we just give them away or yard sale them or pack them and ship them to ourselves or what. I doubt we take a single piece of furniture with us, atleast not at first till we figure out and get settled, but the little things can really add up when you move into a new place.
Just kind of posting as we think of stuff. Basically we drive ourselves nuts thinking about this and can’t wait to go but patience is a virtue they say. Thanks for all your help.
