Don't know but I just came back from Washington DC via BMI airport and I couldn't receive any calls from my home area the entire time I was there... 4 days.

People calling me said they got an intercept message saying... I was unavailable. Never even got to my voicemail nor did I get a missed call notification.

Then they would turn right around and call my son's T-Mobile phone and get right through. Not good. I don't travel much so not a huge problem but still...

I live in Michigan and I couldn't receive any calls from Michigan while I was in DC. Got all the calls from people in DC.

Go figure. I didn't try it while I was there but I should have had someone in Michigan dial the area code and the phone number to see if it made a difference.

That shouldn't be necessary though.

P.S. iPhone saved my butt in DC. I have a TomTom One gps unit and the POI's were a little lacking. Using google maps to locate a destination and then putting that address in the GPS unit gave me a direct hit every time.

I started destination every search from Google before going to the GPS unit. Perfect.

When I re-boot, my clock is off by one hour also.
Live in Houston.

Any ideas?
