It depends upon what you want and the price. 10ag a minute is a really cheap rate, who do you get it with, and what are the terms? The point of the service is that you get a virtual U.S. phone, complete with incoming number, etc. Depending upon how many calls you make a month and how long you stay on, the price can mount. We don't use ours a lot, but I know someone who calls his father in the U.S. twice a day. Geoff. -- Geoffrey S.
