Understood - just trying to be as prepared as possible, and for me saving a few hundred dollars between arriving stateside and shipping out could make a big difference in my ability to train and study, since I've been working off savings out here and don't have any sort of salary.

@Pete, thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for.

@Scimitar, that sounds great! I was actually looking at Verizon just today. I used one of their overseas relocation plans before, where they give you a cheap phone and you FedEx/DHL it back to them after 6 weeks. Buuut... the phone sustained fatal water damage while riding with me in a 4x4 that got stuck in the middle of a river crossing. I guess just "Africa" isn't exactly covered in their returns policy.
