Or vonage for bizarrely cheap long distance ?

tell me more about this vonage....

Vonage is a VOIP phone service (that is it runs over the fiber optic broadband network). It's 29.95 I think a month for unlimited calling all over the US. It's awesome. I get my voicemail in my email, so when I'm at work and I get messages I can still get them as wav files. I love it. And, for me its totally free to call the UK. And I can ask it to tell me how long and how many times I've called X phone numbers and it produces a report for you. (Which is great for the interview!) I looked it up and albania is 16 cents a minute. But it's really nice.

I have Verizon and for 4.95 a month I get 5 cents a minute to Peru but I had to call and ask for the package.....My problem is they use the Claro lines in Peru and OMG that sucks.......he does not have a land line only cell ouch terrible reception but at least I can talk to him oh about 4 times a day and on line about 2 hours an evening......shoot when I was married before I lived with him but I hardly saw or spoke to him...my choice....so this is alot of communication.....

Hang in there Osloratamm! I am not going to pretend I know what it is like to be away from my SO for that long. I can't even imagine how hard that must be. Hold on a bit longer and you will have your approval. You are almost there!!!

I got my RFE letter last night thankfully. Phew. It was exactly what I thought. They need Darren's divorce decree. We didn't have it in time when we mailed in the petition. I am sending it out tomorrow. Hopefully it will keep moving....

My guess is that someone is actively working your case now. You finally got a hold of someone that admitted that you are outside of the processing goals and they have moved your file to the top of the pile, or have given it to someone who is still there working.

Hang in there darlin, I think this is a good sign.
