Cuba also announced a decree that it will finally sell PCs, DVD players, car alarms and televisions of all sizes. http://www.dailytech.com/Cuba+Finally+Allows+Citizens+to+Own+Cell+Phones/article11284.htm And some people think this should be a model for the US government.

Defcon|Rich Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 It's like a cruel joke or just plain foolishness by the government being the average wage in Cuba is $20/mo and the phones are going for $280~ .. (without service) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIS-MOTHER Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 They will be smuggling Cell phones in from Miami. Since it's only 70 or so miles off the coast they will work off U.S. Cell towers. Probably have been doing it for years anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
