I think the reason for that is so that most people that call us do not have to fiddle with dialing an international number. A lot of folks on this end get confused when they see they have to dial so many numbers. Most have never even dialed an international number. So, IMHO, having a US number for forwarding or aa sim with a US number is very attractive. Hence, the reason why most of us jumped on the yackie bandwagon in the beggining. Or look for a US DID number/VOIP that can forward internationally.

My general impression from posts on this forum regarding the use of mobile phones abroad is that you, the US people, for some reasons are "obsessed" about being accessible on US phone numbers. That's why SIMs that provide US DID numbers with relatively low-cost forwarding to "real" SIM numbers are what you need. All this results in RPP payment model....
