Noooo.  You should try living with a UK "caller pays" mobile phone
for a few months, it is worse than my landline at dinner time used
to be.  Since the advertisers are paying for the calls they feel
perfectly free to call, so for a lot of people there that future
is now.

It is the fact that you pay for incoming calls and messages which
has kept those guys mostly away from your cell phone in the US
so far.
