I will be travelling to Oregon and I have an unblocked Nokia 1208. Where can I buy a USA SIM card ?

you can buy a USA SIM at any 7-11 store in the US, comes with a free cell phone no less, that you can keep as a spare or sell later...

That's true, but just like in Canada, you can not buy just the sim card. You have to buy the prepaid kit. (Phone and sim)

In addition to 7-11 stores you can also get inexpensive phone/SIM packages at retailers like Wal-Mart and Target. In some cases these cost $20 or $25 so they're cheaper than buying a SIM alone from someone on this forum and you get a spare phone for free. (The phone might be locked to the US carrier however.)

That's some good advice Bylo.
For instance, my uncle is a retiree who goes down to Florida every winter. They were getting hit with roaming fees, because they just had a Canadian cell phone. They managed to buy a T-Mobile Nokia 1661 at a Target store as soon as they crossed the border. They were lucky and bought it for $10, because it was on sale at the time. When you need more airtime as well, many places like Wal-Mart and grocery stores down there sell airtime cards. It's much more cheaper and practical.
