If you're heading to China for the Olympics, or just for some really good Peking Duck, the folks at PhoneFusion have added a web based calling feature that lets you bridge your calls to a local Chinese cell phone number.
Simply purchase a local SIM and point your PhoneFusion account to the number and your calls from the folks back home won't be at the usual extortion like rates to your regular cell phone. If you need to make a call, simply set that up via their web site or by sending an email.
Both methods generate a callback to your new local number and then you're free to call back to the USA while the local call you USA number and reach you in China without a big bill.
