It appears that Fidelity is now able to send SMS to foreign numbers. I was able to receive an authorization code to my Thai mobile today. It didn't work a few months ago, so it seems to be a recent change. Check the mobile number you have on record with them. They now accept country codes in the phone section of your profile. Hope this helps someone. Paul Laew

I've been dealing extensively with the Federal Benefits Unit in Manila for more than 3 years, and I've found them to be very helpful via email. (I'm not an American, so there are some complexities in receiving SS benefits, particularly for dependent children). Paul Laew

I bought the Brother 1610W laser printer from a seller on Lazada for less than 4k THB. I run Linux, so I was concerned about driver support. But it worked like a charm and the Android printer driver works fine too. I needed to copy and scan as well, so this unit is about the cheapest quality multi-function printer on the market. The print quality is not all that great, but if you print in fine quality for anything important, it's quite acceptable. Paul Laew
