I'm sure there are better deals, but I figured when Fozzie's on a mission, he can use a company phone, and if he's home, he can use a normal cell phone like the rest of us mortals.Terry Odellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610682530545306687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30931389.post-88419370600268071562008-07-09T18:22:00.000-06:002008-07-09T18:22:00.000-06:00Lol, we sure didn't pay for the phone.

If your guy isn't going to be overseas you're right, it doesn't make sense for him to have one :)Katie Reushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18085461796363818906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30931389.post-44601632442756933102008-07-09T14:16:00.000-06:002008-07-09T14:16:00.000-06:00Katie, who paid for the phone and the calls?

My research says they're very expensive -- expensive enough with stiff enough per-minute rates that I can see my guy not needing one since he's not really home all that much (and when he is, he probably doesn't need to make overseas calls). <BR/><BR/>The trials and tribulations of getting things 'right.'Terry Odellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610682530545306687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30931389.post-6550979529288216672008-07-09T13:57:00.000-06:002008-07-09T13:57:00.000-06:00Hmmm, when my husband did contract work overseas (...Hmmm, when my husband did contract work overseas (Jordan, Iraq, and Afghanistan), his satellite phone was a God send and we never had delays when talking.
