Trying to figure out what you mean.

To the best of my knowledge, only certain cell companies work with the ship towers to make phone calls. And there are NO prepaid companies signed up to interact with the ship towers. It would be almost impossible for WMS to correctly bill a prepaid SIM card. There are just too many sellers and providers of prepaid SIM cards-some tied into big cell companies and some "resellers" of the big companies' cell minutes.

If you figure out how to make phone calls FROM a ship in the middle of the ocean for less than the cheapest price of $2.95 per minute, please post.
