The Ooma Box is on sale for today (15 Oct) only at Woot.com
This is a system much better than Magic Jack and cheaper than Vonage. You pay the one time fee (purchase price) and about $3 per month (utility taxes) after that. Ooma was rated by Consumers Report as the best phone system of all phone systems including wired. We have one and it's perfect. Here is the link: http://www.woot.com/
The sale price is $139 and the normal price at Costco USA is over $200. This sale only comes up about once a year at this price. It will disappear by tomorrow.
This system works like Vonage. You plug it into your router, no computer required.

Via the BajaWesternOnion and La Paz Gringos
Baja Foreign Business Group to Meet - Courtesy La Paz Gringos - After taking some time off this summer, we are having our first meeting of the Baja Foreign Business Group Oct. 18 starting at 6:30 p.m. at the Dinghy Dock Restaurant. There will be a 1/2 hour social and then a meeting from 7-8 p.m. Juli Goff and Jill Roldan of Tailhunters started the group. We encourage foreign business owners and others who simply want to contribute to attend our first organizational and planning meeting. Be sure to bring brochures on your business to pass around. Our purpose is to help support each other to become more successful and to have fun along the way. We will be bringing in guest speakers on issues you deem important. All meetings are in English and we will have a translator available when needed for speakers.
So, come on out to the Dinghy Dock Restaurant (overlooking the Palmira Marina). We look forward to seeing you there. It will help to have an idea of the number of people coming, so please email me at jim@lindaneil.com to let me know you will attend and/or to answer any questions you might have. Thanks. - Jim Donahoe, moderator@bajawesternonion.com, La Paz

RIDES FOR PEOPLE, STUFF and CARAVANS - You may send in your ad every 2/3 days.
a. Yes, I am getting ready to head to Los Barriles, and can convoy down the mainland, taking the ferry at Topolobampo mid December 2011. I helped a couple last year on their trip, language translation at the auto permit place just south of Nogales, and helped with translating at the port where you need several documents to board the ferry from mainland to the Baja and La Paz. Anyone looking to travel with someone who has made the trip about 11 times since 2000, let me know and I will fill you in on necessary documents you will need to travel though Nogales and obtain vehicle papers at the Auto Permit Authority, and finally, get on the Baja Ferries in Toplopbampo. This is an overnight trip. You can take pets, but they need tor remain in your vehicle. For more information, please contact Sylvia at treaturfeet@yahoo.com or 928-202-4926
