I think it depends on what your lifestyle or business life is like. If you're travelling and you've got clients or employees, keeping the same number is going to be very handy.

From the Indiegogo page: "You can do this via WiFi (in your hotel or a cafe) or via a Data SIM card. The Roam comes with a Data SIM card where you can pre-purchase data. Alternatively you can use a local SIM card when you arrive at your destination." So it's a global sim from Strone, a local sim or WiFi.
