Hippie, if you can wait at the airport til midnight, I join you. Probably too long for you to wait, but maybe you get a nice long massage right at the airport ... Macumba_macumba@yahoo.com

Wagger, what rates did they quote you on the sabai lodge? And from when do they have lower rates?

Anyone interested in sharing a taxi to Pattaya? I will arrive around midnite on Delta/Korean airline, travelling from the USA. MJPilot@hotmail.com

Bought 4 DVD's, 3 X-rated, plus Pirates of the Carribean on the Market Soi Bukao (spelling???) at 120 baht, also 2 CDs Walking Street 100 a peace. All were excellent quality. Would have bought more, but was worried about US Customs.

Back in January, I just went upstairs, flagged down the first metered taxi, offered him 1200 baht inclusive tolls, and he accepted without further negotiations. I thought I should have started at 1000 and maybe it would have been accepted. That was in the middle of the night, 1:30 a.m., so maybe that was a factor. On the return trip, it only cost me 800 baht plus toll, booked on 2nd road in front of the Made In Thailand shops.

Ellobo - The Nokia 6610 worked excellent in Pattaya. I bought the Happy DPrompt card for 400 baht which they included 200 of talk time (promotion). I called a couple of times to the US and it only took about 35 baht for a 3 min call! Back in the states, I am on T-Mobile, which is also excellent here in Florida. If you wanted to give T-Mobile a try, you could get a Prepaid Sim Card from them, around 50 US. This way, you could test the phone and the network in your area. On my 1 year plan, I get 600 anytime minutes plus unlimited night and weekends for just 40 US, that works out to be

Noone arriving in Bkk around midnite of 19/20th January??? ::)

Ellebo, look into T-Mobile. I just bought a Nokia 6610 from Intelenet.com, 70 US$ with coupons for 125 cashback. It is a tri-Band that will work in Thailand. I just got it unlocked myself with the help of software purchased from ebay, cost me 1 US. I will be in Thailand in less than a week and will know for sure if it allows local SIM cards.

Eddie, or anyone, how are the smaller rooms ?

I take it, my friend, but my plane arrives a couple of hours later from Japan. I guess you don 't want to hang around the airport to wait for me to share the way down.

Anyone arriving 1145 pm on Japan-Airline???
