Default OT; Mike in Afrique. Updated

Posted By: Steve F

10 Month update and request...

Mike has adapted very well to the food, lack of comforts (a toilet), has learned Jula and some other tribal speak. Now my request...

If anyone has an old, working Blackberry... He could use it. Burkina Faso just rec'd B-berry capability and now mom and pop may be able to hassle him more often! Mike said they sell them in the Capital for $800 new, but he makes $7/ day lol.
I'm ignorant about these devices, but will pay fairly for a solid USED one. They all appear fragile to me. If you can help, even recommend a model that may tolerate sandstorms, 120*F days and generally rugged conditions, please email me at; fdnyladder7@comcast.net
