: Actually, *ALL* of Philadelphia will remain in 215, along with almost
: all of Bucks and about half of Montgomery Counties. Everything else will
: go to the new 610 area code.

: One thing to note, There will not be any changes in charges for calls.
: That is, anything that is currently a local call will continue to be a
: local call, even if you have to dial 10 digits to complete the call.

	Are you sure about this?  I can't see Bell of Pa being so nice for
more than a couple of years.  Is there something that the PUC has in
writing saying Bell of PA may not charge between 215 and 610, or are they
just "promising"?
	Cynically,
