I think Paul meant that on a GSM you can drop any international code
and just put a '+' in front of it.
Since I do this all of the time and never had a problem calling this
way from either the U.S. or Canada I think that there shouldn't be a
problem.
Well, at least not for GSM users ;-)
Seriously, how is this handled by older, and still widely used,
especially in the U.S., standards?
