Using an iPhone 4 in the US

Options
Hi,

I am going to work in the US for several months and I currently have an iphone 4 on 3 in the UK. I was wondering if I would be able to get the US equivalent of a PAYG microsim from a US service provider to put in this phone for the 2/3 months that i will be there? I understand I will have to unlock my phone before I do this. Would it be better just to buy a cheap phone when I'm there tomake necessary calls/texts, I should be able to use my iphone on wifi to be able to use whatsapp/skype/viber to contact home without a service plan?

TIA
