There are two types of payphones used in the
Czech Republic - those that accept coins and those
that accept telephone cards. Both types of payphones
can be found easily at many locations in any town or city.
Telephone cards can be purchased at newsstands,
tobacconists ("Tabák" in Czech), at the post
office ("Pošta"), in department stores, hotels,
money exchange offices, etc. Telephone cards are convenient
for
longer and/or more expensive phone calls (e.g. calls abroad)
or if you are going to be making phone calls over a longer
time period and do not want to have to worry about having
coins handy at all times.

If you are planning to stay in the Czech
Republic for a longer term and will need a cell phone,
it might make
sense to purchase one there. There are three main cell
phone companies in the Czech Republic with different plans
to choose from. Mobile phone numbers have 9 digits
and you can determine the provider by looking at the first
3 digits.

Internet cafés with high-speed connection
Internet are plentiful in the Czech Republic. You will find
one at almost every corner in Prague. Prices and opening
hours vary (you will have a hard time finding an Internet
café that stays open after 10 p.m., even in downtown Prague).
You can usually buy a coffee or a drink to sip while browsing.
