By this question I mean, are there calling cards available? Do any U.S. cell phone companies work? Other ideas? I just want to be able to call and check in once or twice during my trip.
thanks

I know that AT&T Cingular worked in St Thomas, St John, Anguilla and Grand Cayman. I suspect that Verizon also will work in these countries without any special needs or rental phones as I can only find exceptions on their website.

Neither will work in Aruba or St Maarten. I suspect that the UK territories have the same cell technologies as the US.

I suggest calling your carrier for rates I had to make changes when we were in Grand Cayman to make the charges acceptable.
