Has anyone had any experience with Mitsubishi Cellular phones? I got a flyer from Amex today offering me one for $95/month for 24 months. This is the phone and portable pack. They also do the initial start-up with Bell South Mobility. Any info on these phones is appreciated. -Richard -- _________________________________________________________________________ | Richard B Dervan BitNet: ccoprrd@gitvm1 | | Office of Computing Services ARPA : ccoprrd@pyr.gatech.edu | | Georgia Institute of Technology CIS : 70365,1012 | | Atlanta, Ga 30332 MCI : RDERVAN | | uucp: ...!{akgua,allegra,hplabs,ihnp4,seismo}!gatech!gitpyr!ccoprrd | |__________________"We don't fit the mold...we build it"__________________|

I have no personal experience with the Mitsubishi, but we have a Panasonic portable that we have been using since the middle of the summer with no complaints. Ignoring the interest, you are going to pay about $2,300 to ammex. We paid about $1,700 for the Panasonic which included registration and all that. Beware that the real cost is in the monthly bills. Check out the different options before you decide on the type of service (rate) you sign up for. If you are on the road all day, and make lots of 9-5 calls, you can buy a block of time per month deal. If you live on your boat, you can get a cheaper after 7pm to 7am deal. It is a relatively fluid market: THE BUYER HAD BEST BEWARE. -- Dale Chayes Lamont-Doherty Geological Observatory of Columbia University usmail: Route 9W, Palisades, N.Y. 10964 voice: (914) 359-2900 extension 434 fax: (914) 359-6817 usnet: ...philabs!lamont!dale
