I received the following email today from my Iridium Service Provider (Stratos) regarding the issue of where the phone can/cannot be used: "Iridium is a Global System including the poles. However coverage is not available in certain countries. Please see below for the listing: These four countries are restricted (meaning the phone won't work there) N. Sri Lanka N. Korea Hungary Poland These countries are barred, which means the phones will probably work there but we cannot guarantee service, and the phones might be confiscated Cuba North Korea Iran Iraq Afghanistan Libya Angola Ghana Yugoslavia"
