I just ordered two. I figure I'll leave one in each car for emergency use in case I don't have my iPhone or it won't work. (You can even use the iPhone or other SIM in this phone. - pre-iPhone4.) I can store it in the plane, too.
My only worry is if the phone gets stolen and the thief runs up a $1000 bill. I'm going to hide the SIM it comes with and not activate it until I need it. I'm going to look to see if you can get a limit on the bill.
BTW, this car lighter adapter from Monoprice is decent quality and has a USB connector to power up or charge a phone or GPS: http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10826&cs_id=1082602&p_id=4878&seq=1&format=2
It has a light and a slide mounting plate to hold it.
