given that a telco cell phone number has onli 7 digits how can it sustain 2-3 million users?

7 digits are for a single area code so if the phone company exceeds the number of subscribers in an area code, they will split the region and assign a new area code.\n\nBut you have also gotten your math incorrect.  For seven digits there are 10 million combinations (10^7).  Some of these won't be valid numbers (e.g. 911-0000, 000-0000, 555-5555, etc.) but those aside you still have lots of combinations... approximately 8 million, more than the 2.5 to 3 million subscribers in an area code.\n\nThen beyond that, you have an area code.  In the past area codes were restricted to formats that had a zero or one in the middle (e.g. 213, 510, 408, etc.) and the local number would have a 2-9 in the middle (e.g. 932, 857, etc.) but now that they have required us to all dial 1 before our long distance numbers (or dial 10 digits always, in some locations), they don't need this restriction.  Some combinations that could be area codes (411, 800, 877, 911) are reserved for information, toll free numbers, emergency, etc.) so that eliminates a few combinations.  And combinations that start with 0 are 1 are obviously eliminated.\n\nThe format of a 10 digit phone number is:\nNPA-NXX-XXXX\n\nNPA = [2-9][0-8][0-9]  8x9x10 = 720 combinations\nNxx = [2-9][0-9][0-9]  8x10x10 = 800 combinations\nStation = [0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]  10^4 = 10000 combinations\n\nSo for the U.S. and Canada (actually Bermuda and the British West Indies too), there are roughly 5.76 billion combinations in a ten digit phone number.  There are certainly less than 5.76 billion people in the U.S. and Canada.  Even with the proliferation of cellphones, modem lines, fax machines, etc. (where people have more than one phone number), we shouldn't exceed that many numbers any time soon.\n\nGoing further, 011 is reserved to mean international dialing from the U.S. and Canada, so if the number starts with that, then a country code you can get even more combinations to cover the whole world.

I looked it up here, and it found no results. http://find.intelius.com/reverse-phone-lookup.html\nMy guess is that it's not a real numberl.

Last I heard, that number was a scam to get information from you to allow others to market to you for specific services. Avoid it. :-)

3G isn't simply a mobile phone related matter! The Word 3G is an acronym which stands for 3rd Generation of the mobile network. Therefore, the effectiveness simply is not limited to the phone units itself. The phone does the receiving and transmitting part for this network. That’s what it does!\n\nEffectiveness of the 3G Mobile Network\n\n1. Higher Data Transfer Speeds: up to 2Mbps, beating Edge, GPRS technology.\n \nData transfers in MBPS I’m not joking! With 2G and 2.5G we are limited to speeds of a maximum of 90 or 56 kbps downloading and 38kbps when uploading, which is similar to a dial-up modem transfer speed.\n\nBut with the introduction of 3G its gone up to 144kbps to 2Mbps. These speeds are much similar to DSL transfer rates. Imagine you could download "YYY MB’s" (Y=variable) in few seconds/minutes on your mobile phone! \n\n\n2. Better Banding for your phone calls: 2100MHz and higher waves are waiting for you!\n\nThis enhances the voice call clarity due to the higher banding ranges, i.e. 2100MHZ and above. The Banding is one fact that decreases the congestion occurred due to heavy network traffic. The higher the banding spectrum the lesser the chance of having a totally unusable "Busy Network", except for certain other calamities that could occur i.e. chain network messages and many more .\n\n3. Cheaper/Quicker Solutions for Corporate and Federal Institutions/Companies: Live-Video Conferencing via 3G\n\nFor companies who frequently have international meetings, gatherings that are un-avoidable this would be a great solution! As a part of cost cutting you could use this alternative. The costs compared with an individual representative flying to that particular location in some-part of the world and the cost involved with the representative attending the forum/meeting at the local office premises itself is imaginable.\n\nEfficiency of these services is much likely to be at higher standards. Therefore, the “Corporate or Federal World” could taste the high flavoured cup-of-tea at a cheaper price!\n\nSo your taxes may set at ease! I hope. Hope the federal reserve doesn’t allocate them to some other expenditure.\n\n4. Globalization is a must: Anyone has access to 3G! (Except for the ones who have not subscribed it!)\n\nWith the enhancement of these services, human inter-related communications, tend to have a great increase. Higher the networking capability, higher the coverage. Higher coverage means that more people have access to it. This drives more users, and finally it creates a really big community!\n\nMany Mobile Carriers are having their hard days, making their cost structure much more attractive to subscribers. So, you have a chance of getting 3G at a comparatively lower cost. Yet, it would be fixed cost i.e. minimum of 200 hours air time, not at a variable rate. \n\n5. Mobile Phone Companies: Wow! Great sales this season! (Seasonal Profits! No they aren’t!)\n\nIt is a new feature, not that new although, that would be bundled into their fancy or sleek model product-lines. They will require sometime to drag the buyers to go for it, though. However it would increase sales at a very higher marginal rate, when 3G becomes more accessible. It’s a new stream-line for the mobile phone companies! \n\n\nThat’s it for the effectiveness of 3G I could personally contribute. Hope it was helpful.\n\nGood Luck!

Yea..I understand your question.  I live in Costa Rica.  Ain't got on zip codes here.  Hell don't even have addresses.  I just make up a number that's 5 digits long.  Seems to work.  I often use "00000" first so it's clear to the person it's bogus.  It's just to get past the CGI script.

Primarily  mobile companies adopt these two startegies.\n\n1. To increase subscriber base (More users, more Money)\n This strategy believes that the best way to grow revenues  is to keep adding new subscribers by lowering usage costs. \nthe key feature of such a strategy is to bring more and more people  in by continuously lowering cost of entry and usage. This is the kind of strategy that is followed in countries like India , where the networks keep adding more people and call rates are the lowest in the world. \n\n2. To grow Usage (Same Users, More usage)\n  This strategy pays more attention to existing customers and believes in increasing revenue from each user by offering more value added services and bundling services. The usual method is to offer an additional service free or at an 'invitation' rate in the and then increase prices after a period.  These companies work on growing Average Revenues Per Users(ARPU). This is the scenario in mature markets which are not seeing significant growth in subscriber base. This is sustainable only in markets that are monopolistic or have only 2 players.

First, make sure you didn't already insure it.  You may have and don't know it.  If you've had service for a while, check your contract.  They may provide a free update allowance.  Also, go to their website and see if they have an deals going on for certain phones with contracts.  Like "Get this phone for $20 when you sign up for 2 years."  You'll keep your number, but the time on your contract will start over. You can also check ebay, but I don't particularly trust any electrical equipment sold on ebay.  That's just me.

I think quite a bit about it.  I use it here in the house to provide 6 handsets and three lines out.(2 VOIP 1 landline).  I run it all via an asterisk server.  In the year or so that I have been doing this, I have had a few problems but nothing that was hard to fix. Besides, I like to be able to set what hours people can call me or if they can call me (based on caller id)

Where I live in Indianapolis, IN. (Also AT&T) it's *69 for auto redial of the last number who called you. If someone has called since then it's a moot point. \n\n\nCALL RETURN\nEnables you to automatically call back to the last incoming number. The last number does not have to be known, nor did the call have to be answered for this feature to work. If the line is busy or there is no answer, the feature will automatically try calling the number for 30 minutes, but will still allow you to place outgoing calls in the interim. You will be notified by special ring when the line is no longer busy.\n\nActivation Codes\n\n*69 for touch tone \n1169 for rotary \nDeactivation Codes\n\n*89 for touch tone \n1189 for rotary \nInstructions\n\nFor activation: \nAt dial tone, enter appropriate code to call back last incoming call received \nYou may also receive a recording of the phone number, date and time of the last incoming call received and asked to press 1 to initiate call back \nIf number is busy, hang up and feature will automatically continue dialing number for 30 minutes \nWhen number is no longer busy, you will receive a distinctive ring that, when answered, will ring back at the requested Call Return number \nFor deactivation: \nAt dial tone, enter appropriate code \nCall Return will automatically deactivate after 30 minutes \nRestrictions/Requirements\n\nWill incur Toll and Long Distance (LD) charges on applicable calls \nIn some cases, Call Return may not work outside of your Local calling area \nCall Return cannot be activated if the number you are calling back: \nHas been forwarded to another number \nIs a private number \nHas a blocking feature \nIs an 800 or 900 number \nIf activated on a line with Custom Ring feature, the call will always return to the main line
