If the phone is unlocked, yes. The 3390 is a 1900 MHz GSM phone. Both GSM
networks in Mexico (Telcel and Telefonica Movil ['MoviStar']) use 1900
MHz.

In May I was in Cancun and used a Telcel prepaid SIM. Rates are expensive,
especially non-local calls (i.e. international and calls out of the area
where the SIM was ***sold***).
