Thanks for the historic overview. Very interesting. As for Egypt - back in 2004 we walked across the Taba border crossing and like everyone else (who had reception, it was very flaky there) we used the phones constantly without being bothered by anyone. I also never heard of problems with phones from family members who visited Cairo a few times. --Amos ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
