Local Calls Aren\'t Free In The UK?!
I was just watching a show on TechTv, called Extended Play. They are in the UK at a game convention, one person mentioned that local calls aren't free there. Is this true? That's odd. Does that mean that cell phones end up being more popular there? I do not know if cell phones work the same there, but here, you pay for your cell service and get local calling in a pretty good sized calling area, which for me is 5 counties (upwards of a 4 hour driving distance from the center of this calling area) ... so that is far larger area than the regular 13 (13 mile, right guys? I forget for sure) mile calling radius we have with our wired home phones. Of course, you can get cell phone with nataional long distance, but that is another story.
