[QUOTE="OldDogNewTrick, post: 367202, member: 3148"] After severe pesterings fro the Minister for War and Finance about me going bush with no comms I bought an InmarSat "Satphone 2" on a pre paid basis. It's $1,000 with some credits thrown in but I reckon it will pay off in reduced resistance to my wanderings. One neat feature is you can send it free sms from the Inmarsat website. The phone can also text GPS coordinates to the Missus so she can enter it to Google maps and see what pub I'm in :) Oh yes, and it can make calls.....
