Except that when I've been to the USA - I've needed a 1900Mhz phone - this is only 900 and 1800... *GSM INTERFACE * GSM output 900MHz: Class 4/5, 2W EGSM * GSM output 1800MHz: Class 1, 1W DCS * SIM interface: 3V mini SIM .... but look at the website (Hey, it looks like my box!) as the features are what you are looking for... I believe Motorola was one of the earlier producers of this type of device - but would think that most of the manufacturers would have a similar type of unit. Push the "Telephone access in disaster areas, where wire-network infrastructure is damaged" point... :-) > > -Herman > > > On Mon, 2005-02-28 at 17:21, Mark Elkins wrote: > > On Fri, 2005-02-25 at 16:29 -0700, Mr. James W.
