  46. I think what the phone company *meant* was that ISDN service is available
  47. only under a business tariff. In the Pacific Bell area, this means that (local) ISDN
  48. calls will cost 4cents/min for the first minute, then 1 cent/minute afterwards.
  49. Compare this to the residential tariff, where local calls are free. The
  50. California Public Utilities commission is rumoured to be about to approve
  51. a residential (i.e. unmetered) ISDN tariff.
