I just got a job in China. Anyone know if you can get volley talk there? No problem in Hong Kong in recent past. I'll ask somebody in China to try to log on VT. |

I just got a job in China. Anyone know if you can get volley talk there? No problem in Hong Kong in recent past. I'll ask somebody in China to try to log on VT. I heard there is not access where I will be. I guess I should delete this account. Good luck to everyone. |
