This is exactly what I use UMA for. I travel outside the country quite a bit. I always set my UMA blackberry to Wifi only (so it does not switch back to the cell network when there is poor wifi). I always get all my SMS, emails, voice calls directly to mobile phone with no roaming charges. I found a great article a few months ago on a blog site that really helped me when traveling internationally. Check it out: http://www.assassin711.com/?p=92
