I spoke with them (and subsequently ordered one.) I asked why, for example, Mexico incoming is free, and on all other Manx SIMs, it costs. He told me that their business model is different than the others, and, although they pay a small termination fee for Mexico, they disburse costs over their whole network, and not target one particular country, so, they can offer overall better pricing, and absorb smaller term fees to allow it to be free... We'll see. I'll try it, and see. They do have 07624 numbers.

It's also free incoming on ekit IOM sims (07924 though). I've just been using them in Mexico for the past few days - enlinea callback to an ipkall.com number pointed to a sip address at voipcheap.com forwarded to the 07924 ekit phone - 5c + 10.4c (8 eurocents) = 15.4c/min outbound from MX to US. Long round-trip delay, but good quality otherwise.

Where did you read that? The new rates effective from 1 March 2007 still show Mexico as free incoming (for the Global Premium Service, Zone 4a).

I was talking about the ekit international sim (check my initial post).

It was free until yesterday for the international sim and from today it is not.
