not much.

you know what i miss the most about america, barring actual members of my immediate family? domestic phone rates to the us and canada.  dammit.

certain better halves who kept getting side-tracked from hbp-reading all weekend finally finished it last night, and yet i still haven't started it; i actually woke up this morning and started writing.

You might want to look into prefixes. There are loads of them in Germany and they undercut the regular rate for international calls massively.

o.0 :surreptitiously googles: ...nope, all the results are about US area codes. what's a prefix?

the prefix is the 994 or 990 or 999 or whatever that comes first. they do have different rates.

Well, it depends on where you're calling, and so forth. It's probably an idea to check what their offers are.

Err, that might not be the right word. It's a number you dial to access a cheapo telecom provider rather than the regular one. It's a "vorwahl" in German, if that helps.
