　　（2） Now appear in a shop near you.

　　Near each Cardphone place you’ll find a shop where you can buy one. They’re at bus, train and city tube stations（地鐵）.

　　Many universities, hospitals and clubs. Restaurants and gas stations on the highway and shopping centres. At airports and seaports.

　　（3） No more broken payphones.

　　Most broken payphones are like that because they’ve been vandalized（故意破壞）. There are no coins in Cardphone to excite thieves’ interest in it. So you’re not probably to find a vandalized one.
