^LOL, I have read that a lot of people will just buy a buy a phone while in India as they are not that cheap. I am not wealthy by any means...I am a teacher but careful with my money. Time to enjoy it!
I will look on ebay. So the idea is to use the phone itself to charge the batteries, one at a time and then have them on reserve. I hope that they can hold a decent charge for a few days when not sued.
