DALLAS (CBSMiami/AP) — AT&T plans to provide enhanced roaming and other cellphone services for customers visiting Cuba.

The Dallas-based telecommunications giant on Monday announced the agreement with the state telecommunications company, Etecsa. Terms were not released.

An AT&T statement says a start date and pricing for the wireless roaming in Cuba — including talk, text and data — will be announced later.

Sprint announced a roaming agreement with Etecsa last fall to allow subscribers visiting Cuba to send and receive calls and text messages.
