    Did a search and nothing.

    My wife is deploying for about 9 months to the Med area and will be hitting alot of ports. Instead of buying sim cards and an unlocked phone at all the ports she will pull into I was wondering if there was a Satellite phone rental company anyone has used and can recommend.

    I have researched a little but the best I have found is like 29 dollars a week! :mad: There has got to be something better than that.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Dude, those sat phones are so darn expensive - the calls are expensive too.

    If she's going to a lot of ports, the cell coverage should be good, so a sat phone is overkill really.

    Why don't you get something like a Eurobuzz phone www.eurobuzz.com?
