Speaking of Military, I live in Fayetteville, NC which is right next to Fort Bragg. We are all Military, or Military affilated here. When the Military needs cell phones, they spare no expense. About 3 months ago i sold a whole company company there cell phones. It came to 84 phones, that i hooked up on Cingular. You should have seen my commision that month. God Bless America.
