Thanks! The technology is so old that I can send but not receive text messages, and people even a couple of counties away from me get an error message when they try to call; "We are sorry, you are not authorized to make long-distance calls!" because the system thinks they're calling some country that still has 2g.

It's really interesting, though, and I'm enjoying it a lot.
