- No kidding. I don't ring up much LD voice, and zswamp makes a call only
- during the lowest price time window for that call. Most often it calls
- between Toronto and Kitchener, which I believe is still less than 20 cents per
- minute. zswamp is no better off if it can call after 5 PM in stead of waiting
- for 11 PM, and I don't make 'prime time' long distance calls from home.
- Unitel is therefore no bargain for zswamp, nor likely for me.
