Cell Phone Lines All Sold
Remember those more than 2,000 cell phone lines that were supposedly on sale at outlets authorized by the national phone company, ICE? Well, following up its own story Wednesday, the daily newspaper al Dia says they are all gone.
ICE (a Spanish acronymn for Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad) had retained the majority of the lines to sell from their own offices. All told, more than 8,000 lines were sold in less than 24 hours. The overwhelming demand for new lines continues, seemingly insatiable in Costa Rica.
