Actually....... (700) 555-XXXX will tell you who your carrier is. For some reason unclear to me, they sometimes say XXXX is 1212, 2121 or 4141. Makes no diff. POPCORN (Time in the Bay Area is the same, POP-XXXX is just as good. (905) (903) and (706) are what I guess can be called pseudo-area codes. (706) Northwest Mexico and (905) Mexico City are listed as dialing arrangements for AREAS NOT EQUIPPED FOR INTERNATIONAL DIALING. In fact, they list them 90+5 (the city code) and 70+(two or three digits beginning with 6). I assume (903) is the same type of arrangement. (700) is one of AT&T's "reserved" ACs. Besides the carrier ID, they also use it for Alliance Teleconferencing Service. -------
