In December I posted (1166) the following info on rates taken from Space News.

An article in this week's Space News discusses Iridium's rates, which vary widely
depending on the service provider, rate plan, and origin/destination of call. It gave
about two dozen examples. The cheapest call listed was 2$/minute between two N.
American sites. The most expensive:8$/min from Southern Africa to N. America.
Most other examples shown were 4-7$ per minute.
