 BL> 2 August 1997 Ottawa Canada
 BL> Bell Cellular in Ontario and Quebec offers Prime Line Direct, a
 BL> one-number reaches your home, office, cellular, fax and pager.
 BL> Only one problem.  It s just a bit over priced and in addition to
 BL> Prime Line Direct, you must also pay for each numberr it routes
 BL> calls to.
Have you heard what you can do with your unit from Clearnet now?
You can go into all of the Nextel network and use your Canadian phone there
at your own home Canadian rates. You pay in Canadian funds and there is
NO roaming fee. If you are in New York and phone New York you pay local
rates in Canadian money! If you call Chicago from New York you pay 41 cents
per minute in Canadian money. If you get your set from Nextel in the US
you pay in US money. Just think. If a person got a phone from a Canadian
dealer he could use it all over the US Nextel coverage area at Canadian
rates. You would save about 40% depending on the exchange rate at the time.
Bell and Cantel don't come close to this kind of value service.
