Yes, it will work under some conditions. The phone has to be unlocked. Unlocked meaning you can enter a chip (SIM card) from any other country and it would work. You can easily take it to a swapmeet or something similar in San Jose and have them unlock it, it won't cost anything over $25 to do that. You then have to get a phone plan (under Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile, ect) insert that chip into your phone. You can also get a pre-paid service which includes a chip. If you need any further information on unlocking your phone take a look at the website i found for you. http://www.thetravelinsider.info/roadwarriorcontent/unlockingfaq.htm

only with a chip if not it won't work

Only if the phone is unblocked only. Cell phone providers usually block the phones so that only a chip from their own company will work (from Peru it might be Nextel, Claro or Telefonica). I know some people can unblock your cellphone for $20 or $25 dollars on craigslist.org Good luck
