Max...

All you do is put "00" infront of the INTERNATIONAL 800 # (++++800-5058-****). It then worx in most W. European countries:

Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland*, France, Germany, Ireland, Malaysia, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland, Taiwan, UK

Other countries then have their own prefix (some eg.):

Australia 0011
Hong Kong 001
Israel 014
Japan 001 or 0041 or 0061

I carry the little card with all my FF cards but having my GSM programmed with the "00" set is just great. Being able to hit AC Intl. on my phone and be connected to YUL 24 hours a day...well enuf said! I must admit...it is easier than making a call from my laptop! (though that is pretty easy too from www.freewebcall.com)

Nice not having to pay that 70 cents a minute as well!
