I don’t know anything about On Star, but one alternative you might want to consider is pre-paid cellular. Deb and I bought a couple of TracFones at K-Mart for about $50 each and have to buy a card for airtime once every two months. We get the $20 cards (30 minutes), so that boils down to $10 per month ongoing cost. The per-minute charge is very high, but we use it so little that we have lots and lots of minutes stored up. Coverage is at least as good as friends’ “regular” cell phone service and the newer models of phones have caller ID, call waiting, and voicemail built-in. www.tracfone.com -----Original Message----- From: az-geocaching-admin@listserv.azgeocaching.com [mailto:az-geocaching-admin@listserv.azgeocaching.com]On Behalf Of gale and mike Sent: Tuesday, April 22, 2003 2:53 AM To: listserv@azgeocaching.com Subject: [Az-Geocaching] Any help appreciated We are probably going to have to get another vehicle. We're thinking of getting one with the On Star System. Does anyone out there have it or use it? What do you think of it? We don't have cell phones (personal choice) but we're concerned about contact in the event we need help when we're out caching. Sorry if this message is repeated.
