Hi,
You can buy a Telcel GSM card upon arrival at the Mexico City airport,
just specify it should be for the Oaxtepec/Cuautla area code (735). It
costs MX$150 and has MX$75 in credit (and can, of course, be
recharged). You will have to show your boarding pass and passport to
be able to buy at the Telcel shop at the airport.
Quoting from [1]:
At the airport you will find a Telcel VIP office, there you can
buy a SIM card (ask for OAXTEPEC area, area code 735), the cost is
MX$150.00 ($75 pesos of calls included). This office is located in
the first floor, in the hall C, behind the 'Exhibition Center'
(Centro de exposiciones), marked in the map as -Telcel(mobil)-, it
opens from 7:00 am to 22:00 everyday. Tel. 5786 9295 National
coverage includes Oaxtepec. Services availables: TDMA, GSM, GPRS.
The map it mentions is:
