Also although I don't use it that much, O9 does not seem to support text messaging and voice mail.

Yes, the SMS service does not work yet (btw, the SMSC-Number is from Switzerland).
We had problems using the card in Africa some weeks ago. It did not register to the network in Namibia even though it is on their coverage list. In South Africa it worked perfectly as it does here in germany.
Just the incoming calls from the cheap providers (like 10-10 in the US) are not satisfying at the moment. Cheapest working provider charges about 35 Eurocent per minute
