Yep, it's in the new 93/94 phonebooks. I just saw it today, but didn't
look at the cost. They have two "circle" plans. 

Be carefull though, the distance is usually calculated between two
phone company rate centers. This may not correspond to distance
between you and the person you are calling. There was also a very
obscure notice in this months bill. Something about MiBell wanting
to include some costs in these circle plans. Usually when you
can't understand the notice, it means they are raising the charge.
