Saw THIS OVER ON rbull Here's what I've heard but I can't confirm that it is true or not true. Total Communications Plus, Inc. ended up going with FNET instead of USAT. I have also heard that FNET, Telefreedom, DMI, and Vortech are signing up people left and right for their Flat Rate services which appear to range from Vortech's low of $59 per month ($25 set up fee) to DMI's high of $90 per month (no set up fee) for unlimited 24/7 service. Vortech also just came out with 2+ dialing. You dial 2 and then directly dial the number; no 800 number and no pin codes. I have signed up with Vortech but I haven't been provisioned yet. Soon? (word chosen on purpose) I'll keep you updated. After this week they are suppose to have a 72 hour turn around time. I have also heard that FNET is going to 2+ dialing also. If USAT is going anywhere they better do something quickly. They appear to be the only game in town who cannot provide national service coverage.
