Marc,
How do I find out how many G's my emergency cell phone is/has? It's a
Nokia 2610 "candybar" basic phone. I've had it for maybe 4-5 years.
Network is AT&T. It's pay-as-you-go, and I buy my refill every 365
days for $100 ($.25/minute, so 400 minutes), but only use a fraction
of the minutes in a year. If I re-up the refill before it expires,
the unused minutes carry over to the next year.
