I was just looking at the iPhone rate plans for Switzerland. Tha base plan is $25/month, but does not include talk time. You have to buy talk time separately. Here is the most interesting part. Swisscom does not sell talk time by the minute, the sell it by the HOUR. And an hour of talk time goes for 68 CENTS (0.70 CHF). Yes, cents, not dollars. I'm really starting to feel rotten about this. The main reason I'm not getting an iPhone turns out to be that I live in the USA. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
