Yes, or you could just sign up for a Skype account and buy some credit to use while on vacation. Skype's LD rates are generally much better than telco's. With Skype credit you can call from Skype directly to any land or mobile number as if you were using a normal phone for the dialing. The Skype app only works over wifi though, not wireless data. Probably a good thing since that would jack your data usage pretty quickly.

As for apps: AirVideo is absolutely brilliant.

Works on the latest iTouch as well as iPhone and iPad. Real time conversion and streaming off your computer for pretty much every media format your can think off: avi, mpg, mkv, wmv, etc. It's also bandwidth aware so it will scale back the video quality if you're connecting over 3G and internet instead of over your home wifi. The server software is free, the full client costs $2.99. This one app is making me lust after an iPad, so perfect for watching tv and movies on the deck with a cigar!!
