I would like to recommend a service that has recently come to the consumer. Flat rate long distance. My wife, in her brilliance, set up our phone service, so now I can call anyone in the US and talk as long as I want.
This has been invaluable recently, as now I do not hesitate to call anyone in my PAMPA directory, and especially anyone I correspond with on the Net. In fact, the Net used to substitute for high priced long distance rates. People chose to talk on forums, chat rooms, and e-mail, instead of using the phone. Now, using flat rate long distance, you can once again speak directly to the person concerned.
I called California last night, South Carolina a couple nights ago, and New York before lunch. It's great. My wife hates it!!!!
Nah, not really...

I use SWBell. If you use a Bell you should be able to search plans.
