Hi Angel,
Those satellite phones are amazing and I know ranchers and other people traveling in the interior use them quite a bit. Do you know what these cost currently? Also, I have been to a place in La Ceiba that sells the these. What are the names and locations of other satellite phone dealers?
In your opinion will regular cell-phone service become available throughout the country pretty soon or is a satellite phone still a good investment?
Sorry, about all these questions.
