yes, that takes care of sending subscribe to ua that does not support
it.  the sad thing is that there are UAs on the marker that don't
advertise their supported methods in register request.

just today i heard in radio news that some operators who currently have
flat rate data service are planning to go for metered one.  they claim
that with current flat rates, it is not possible to keep on upgrading
mobile network capacity.  i don't think that vodafone, for example, is
offering flat rate data service anywhere in the world.  i hope that i'm
wrong, but i would not at this stage count on flat rate mobile data.
and it is not just the cost, i simply don't want to get SIP spammed by
unauthorized sources.
