>Satphone - monthly/annual fee

As Kieranl pointed out, I pay no monthly fee for my Iridium sat phone. I just put my Telstra nextg post paid sim enabled for international roaming in and dial away.

I reckon Iridium services are best - most of the Globalstar sats have had significant failure of the voice channel and therefore struggle for service. Thuraya is an alternative but serviced by a geostationary sat at about our 2pm sun position - good for flat ground but not for trips with southerly aspects.
