Right now I think it's the U.S. military regime, but I could be wrong.

No US firms, here are some press releases. Take your unlocked 900 or
900/1800 MHz GSM phone, and find a licensee's store for a SIM purchase.

MCI.

A buddy of mine has one and the number is in New York.

I don't know if you can sign up for the service without being assosiated
with the militray

Just curious, what does your friend in Iraq pay for incoming calls or does
the Government subsidize it?
