Re the 700 numbers: are all calls to these numbers free to the
caller? That is, are they more like "800"s than "900"s?

On a more general charging topic: when you have message-unit service,
are there any costs charged back to the caller when you call 800 or
other toll-free numbers? (Like maybe the basic costs of making the call,
but no time charges?)
