What Jason is talking about are two features that do not come included in the free year of the OnStar Premium Package. Personal Calling and Virtual Advisor are add-ons, and you can purchase "units" (basically minutes) in advance. These features, however, are not currently available, but will be sometime early in 2001. The safety, security, and convenience services of OnStar are included and I do not think that he has questions about those.
My advice to Jason (same as MJP): don't buy this package, as the rates are a rip-off. Hopefully it will not sell well and GM will realize that the rates have to drop before people will buy. Furthermore, Personal Calling with voice-activated features is great, but it lacks the "take your phone with you" benefit of normal cell phones. I'd opt for a phone kit so you can have the best of both worlds. Hopefully Saab will design something in the future to allow you to use Personal Calling with your own phone.
