SAT PHONE HIRE ???

Submitted: Friday, Jul 01, 2005 at 21:56

Hi everyone am currently looking at a sat phone on the Iridium network and was just putting some feelers out regarding the hire of it to EO people and 4wd clubs .
Was looking at charging $70 per week and $60 per week for 2 or more weeks of hire ,call charges at $1.50 per 30 sec . Do you think there would be a good demand for the hire as compared to Sat Phone hire companys it is very cheap.
Any feed back would be great and anyone perhaps interested in hiring in a month or so let me know I am in North subs Melbourne and would arrange drop off etc .
Thanks

Thanks Chrispy, Have waited three days and no reply from Gq or John. Have looked at landwide website and they even have a agent nearby. Lets see if they want my hard earned money.
