Satellite phones

[LostDOG]

On our recent trip through Lesotho I saw the value of a satellite phone. Darren told me the price - pretty steep for joe-soap. Does anyone know what the alternative options are in terms of prices / rental / etc?

I understand the actual call costs are cheaper than cellphone roaming?
