Great. Is this the thin end of the wedge? I first heard about this
from the excellent www.unmetered.org.uk
Wish we all could have it. Maybe one day. I think we're the only
country in Europe left with metered calls. An NTL rep told me it's in
the pipeline but they havn't had the word yet.
One thing worries me though - how does a free ISP get the money if the
calls are unmetered as well? Surely not free ISP and free calls?
