If someone could let me know if I am on the right track?

If I use my telstra sim,
* turn off 3G
* don't answer phone
*international texting is cheap so ok to use?
* data roaming on or off?
If on will it charge international rates?
If off will I be able to connect to free wifi?

Using Bali Sim,
* do I need to change any settings that are currently set up for my telstra acct?
* I just want to call home when away (WA) do I need the +61 in front if any number I dial?
* what about texting, is there any special code for this?

I would only like to check/send my emails, phone home a couple of times & possibly send a few texts. I have skype set up so am hoping to use this to phone home through wifi. In fact I am wondering if getting a Bali sim is even worth it?

Any clarification would be appreciated as I tend to confuse myself!
Many thanks :)
