If you have >an AT&T or BOC calling card, you can use 10333 along with that number. Sprint has created this service solely for the usage of *other* companies calling cards? Am I the only person who sees something wrong with this? This discussion has come up before, and like all TELECOM discussions, will come up again (and again, and again, and again...) but I never noticed an actual answer: will AT&T and the RBOC's ever have the ability to keep their calling card numbers to themselves, and is the availability of this information mandated by the FCC/MFJ/?
