No experience with it, I just tried to join yesterday. Very insistent on
a cell phone # and just quits if you don't give it one. But only 1
cellphone, a trackfone I keep alive for calling for help if my pickup
strands me someplace, registered to the missus. As fones go, I don't
worry about the spelling as it doesn't deserve that much respect. POS is
worth a lot less than the 100 a year to keep it working
