Hmm, that's interesting, maybe their cellular system has plenty of capacity 
and they don't want to create a similar system at 1900 mHz. I've heard 
mention before of a system like you describe. I wouldn't be too interested in 
it but a lot of people may be, especially if it's real cheap to use.
-BL> Yes it seems they don't want it to compete with their

If they don't have a capacity problem on the 850 mHz system then I suspect 
that what you say is true, they see no need to create a similar system at 
1900 mHz.
Down here we need a few more cellular carriers in each market.
I'm hoping that other carriers will follow what Powertel is doing and offer 
unlimited time for $50 a month.
