I'm looking into buying a transportable phone.  I've so far considered
the Panasonic EB-362 (7lbs., $1300), and the Audiovox CMT-1400 (9.5lbs.,
$1400).  For monthly airtime charges, the best I've been able to get is
$16/mo. + $0.20/min. for the first 200 min.  I'd like to know what 
experiences you've had with these or any other so-called "transportable" 
cellular phones, as well as monthly charges to operate them, roaming, etc.
Please reply directly to me via e-mail.

Thanks in advance,
