I have information about Iridium satellite phones (Kyocera SS-66K) to be bought at a bargain basement price.

They’re not the latest model but are small, lightweight, and weatherproof and work as well as any Iridium phone. The phones were manufactured by Kyocera and until the introduction of Motorola 9050 were the standard issue with most sat phone rental companies. I have checked with Iridium and they confirmed the phones are fully supported. The only drawback is that the spare parts may be hard to get. But what would you expect at this price?

To activate the phone you will need a standard Iridium SIM card from any sat network provider. The price is UKP 250.00 plus P&P to any UK destination (a bit more to continental countries).

A full description (i.e. as many details as I managed to obtain) is available at the following address: http://www.overlandcruiser.info

If you need to discuss this, please do so by sending me an email on info@overlandcruiser.info

Hi Roman

I though it would be useful to post this query rather then email you direct as others might be interested in the comments.

How much do these things cost to run?

i.e. connection costs, line rental, monthly fees, call charges, answer-phone services etc...

Any idea?
