Figured as much based on Joe's history of funny posts, but this is Argentina after all.... anything is possible. :)

Have you called Verizon to see if they can give you any setup instructions, or an unlock code for the GSM feature? Sometimes these phones need to download carrier settings for data 3g and MMS to work. This is usually an automatic download when you pop in the chip, but you may need to manually...

wow... do you remember what street that was? there's still some prefectura around, so it's a bit surprising.

We bought our tickets on Jan 17th with United, and purchased our cat's in-cabin ticket that day as well. No issues with United, though I wish I had known about Delta's in-cabin policy beforehand, since that's a better route for us.

Nice portfolio Josh! Welcome to BA. Hope you enjoy the city and find a place soon :)

Is Delta allowing in-cabin pets now? The few times we looked into it before, they told us not allowed. That's the main reason we are using United now, but would definitely switch to Delta if we can do in-cabin.

Hmm... On your other post you said this was for a cat, so why not bring it on board with you in the cabin? United allows in-cabin, so long it is a small pet, you have the vet/health paperwork in order, a carrier that meets the requirements and pay the cat's USD $125 (each way) ticket...

Wanted to share a bit about buying tickets in pesos... We just bought two RT tickets (AR > US) with United online and went to their local office to pay for it in pesos yesterday. No issues, the online checkout process adds the 35% to the total automatically (still, we saved just over USD $700...

;)

That's impressive. Where can I find the stats for this?

I don't disagree much with what you call the 'weapons mafia', but there are countries that have 'escaped' by abolishing their military like Costa Rica or Panama, or by not having one at all.

:D thx, but the emoticon was just a reaction to someone using the term "illegal" himself, and then stating the incorrectness of the term, to someone else, just a few minutes later.

:confused:

That's for hourly (part time) workers... the ones who that might do 10 ~ 20 hours a week, if booked. Remember many housekeepers are not full-time salaried, working for a single family. Many work multiple households doing a few hours here and there, and never reach anything close to 173 hours...

Yes, the employer always pays makes the $135 payment to AFIP. I wasn't referring to deductions from impuesto a las ganancias, etc. What I was referring to, is how this is declared on the F.102/B form and receipts (i.e., the breakdown of that $135). A portion of that $135 is deducted from the...

FWIW... My understanding is that the going rate in Puerto Madero is now around $70 ~ $80 per hour. Thought this varies by neighborhood, so it can be lower elsewhere. One savvy mucama once told me that she based her hourly rate on the price of a kilo of milanesa. As in "with one hour's work...

A few tips on how to purchase on MercadoLibre; 1. Sign up and create an account: https://registration...r/registration/ 2. Search for the item you want to purchase (e.g. "magsafe 1") - ML has vendors all over Argentina, so you want to filter your results by clicking "Capital Federal" on the...

Hi HelaineT, This guy sells Mac stuff on MercadoLibre and has the charger for $900, which is a good price at the blue rate. I just ordered 3 mac cables from him this morning, and got them delivered a few minutes ago to our home. http://articulo.merc...60w-85w-45w-_JM Edit: that listing is...

There's fireworks and lots people partying in Puerto Madero around the Women's bridge and the diques. They used to have DJ's and outdoor bars a few years back, but I'm not sure they are doing that anymore (we were not here for NYE last year). Happy New Year's!

In all the years we've been here, we've only experience one short outage (3 hours), several years back, and it was scheduled (with prior notice) as a building repair. Haven't had one since then. (knock on wood). The infrastructure here is one of the newest in the city.
