My recent NETel bill contained an ad for a new 800 service available around here. Apparently, the number is only good from the New England area... I thought that 800 numbers were either within 1 state, or countrywide...

Bands 1 through 4 are rarely ordered these days since they just are not cost-efficient. It could be NYNEX has set up something along these lines. PT]
