[nagdu] Wicked off topic phone question, But I will answer anyway.

[Mark J. Cadigan]

For what it is worth. I have a phone with mobile speak running on the ATT 
network. It does not require a data package, but it only makes phone calls. 
I don't use all the other features. It is the Motorola QV9H. you can email 
me off list if you want more information.
