It’ll be dead weight in your pocket.<br /><br />IMHO, planning to depend on technology in general is a fundamental mistake. Plan for low-tech, not high.<br /><br />Snoop-Diggity-DANG-DawgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-49491583933049665872010-07-13T20:23:01.283-07:002010-07-13T20:23:01.283-07:00Off topic, Ferfal.

He has travelled all over the third world but said the situation in Nigeria is very frightening. Travellers are told not to leave their hotel rooms. He said in most third world countries you can walk around the business/financial district in relative safety in the daytime. Not in Nigeria. So he had to walk on the treadmill in the hotel. He came back so very grateful for USA. We complain a lot, and I see the decline here for sure, but overall he was thrilled to be back in the USA!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-64297755860441221582010-07-13T14:49:13.891-07:002010-07-13T14:49:13.891-07:00If one wants an emergency phone during the period ...If one wants an emergency phone during the period of unrest and uncertainty due to financial, social and political upheaval one should look at a satellite phone. ISAT PRO is new to the market and it works off the Inmarsat Satellite Global System. Not for everyday use due to cost per minute but definitely handy for EMERGENCIES.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939666320943790100.post-7296431113598141102010-07-13T13:26:42.932-07:002010-07-13T13:26:42.932-07:00I carry a Razr with a hard plastic cover on it.
