RE: A wonderful hidden charge

I don't know if you are interested, but if you were to download Skype
(free), you could pay +/- $30 for a year of long distance in the USA or
Canada to any land line phone...

I got it on sale at the beginning of the year, and most of the time the
quality is fantastic.

>> I don't have an international plan.

Neither do I Joe (in the reverse direction of course) and other than
cell phones I've never encountered a situation where the US is
regarded as "foreign" - and even then only when I'm _in_ the US as
opposed to calling it.

You might want to take this up with your phone company - it is not
normal to treat Canada as a "foreign" country - but I _have_
experienced many situations where because the Canadian area code is a
new one, that US boards treat it as being in the Caribbean or
whatever.

One would hope that AT&T wouldn't have that sort of screwup, but I'll be
calling them to find out just what the deal is.
