over internet, like skype or g phone but if that doesn't work you can try
buying minutes on a land line. You can also buy a Mexico cell phone to call
back to the US. You can get them at cell phone dealers there.

I routinely use my ATT cell phone in Mexico. You have to dial a +1 first. Of course roaming charges apply.

My Verizon iPhone works fine in Mexico and all the way down to Costa Rica. In Mexico it automatically switches to roaming and they charge $0.99/min. Data is $0.50. At that price I use it as an emergency backup on the road and turn cellular data off to avoid accidental extra charges - I wait 'till I'm connected to wifi and Skype on my iPhone for non-emergency chats...works for me.
