Date: Wednesday, 8 June 2005 07:47 (UTC)Though I pay 1.7 euro cents (2.6 cents Canadian) a minute for calling the US, which is not that bad; it's half the price of a daytime local call, in fact! (Though for a fair comparison, I choose a specific carrier for calls to the US but usually don't for local calls, and the ability to choose your carrier for local calls is comparatively new, anyway.)
