Let's leave Oilex for a while and go to the phone business.
The following story is from Israel, which means,--it will be available in the U.S within a few years.
"Bezek Communications, Israel's telephone company, has announced a new
service called One Number. Under the new service, a person is assigned a
single telephone number, at which he can be reached at any time, place,
and telephone unit. When he arrives at work, for instance, he dials a
code into the phone unit in his office, and all phone calls to his
personal number will then be directed to that unit. The service, which
is scheduled to begin in March, is designed to alleviate the problem of
one person having three or four different telephone numbers: home, work,
cellular phone, etc. Bezek has announced that the first 100 people to
sign up for the new service will be able to choose their own seven-digit
number."
PS
Air-time charges for cell phones, in Israel, are about $0.03 a minute.
