Hi,

It is my understanding that you can buy and use them anywhere. The
spokesperson on the SPOT web site travels around the world with his and it
works fine.

So far I have exported one unit to Australia and the customer has not
complained about any issues with using it there.

I'd be glad to sell you one of course.

nice.http://spot.whiteboardagency.com/fil.../SPOTTour.html

I have also updated all data on my SPOT web

Being a global system will a US unit ( bought and paid for in the US )
work in Europe?

I only ask because I am p******d off at the typical pricing strategy
being applied.

US price $200 plus subs of $100 plus $50 for tracking upgrade.

Euro prices E200 plus subs of E100 plus E40 tracking upgrade

At the current exchange rates 1 Euro = $1.6

If I put a unit on my Amex card next time I'm in the US no one would
be any the wiser!

Pity theres so little African coverage. It could be a HUGE benefit
there! I know of several challenges just asking for this technology!
