I am looking for a place to purchase some small pieces of sheet copper or brass. Also some brass or copper tubing 4 - 5mm diameter. I am thinking of a hobby shop, jewelry supplies, DIY store etc. Went to Guad yesterday and just couldn't find the right area, and I am sure that there is one! Can anyone help?

I am going to drive up north and want to buy an unlocked phone so that I can use it in the USA and Canada. Can I buy one locally? If so, where?

I do have a newish prepay phone from Telcel but assume it is locked to Telcel. Is there a local service around where I might be able to get it unlocked?

Finally, can I use the Telcel prepay as it is in the USA and Canada and pay a roaming fee? Is this a possibility?

We have something for sale and the buyer asks if he can pay by credit card. We have two Mexican bank accounts. But have no idea if there is a way the buyer can  actually pay into one of them using his card. Any ideas?

We are in San Antonio. Firstly, I have to say Telmex has been diligent in trying to fix our problem but at the end of the day it seems that we are physically too far away from the local server to get a fast/reliable internet connection.

Telecable might be an option. But unfortunately we are required to pay for a TV tier that we don't want and will never watch in order to get internet. Thus the internet cost will be higher than Telmex. However I also seem to remember that if you pay a years subscription ahead of time that there is/was a healthy discount which might help. Is this still in effect? I cant find anything on their website.

But I seem to remember that there might be a 3rd internet ISP option using a radio connection. Could someone remind me of the service and if possible their website.

Thanks

On the eve of the tenth anniversary of the Iraq War the BBC has broadcast an interesting documentary.A cousin of mine worked on it and it has already received a US stop notice, meaning it will probably never be broadcast there - sort of makes it more interesting..

Then another titled America's gun addiction

Draw your own conclusions......

Note. BBC's Panorama has produced high quality documentaries starting in 1954. Here are direct downloadable links.
