What's the deal on these new in-state "toll free" exchanges that I see
advertised occasionally?  There must be a shortage of 800 numbers, eh?

Do these toll free exchanges have any interesting technical kluges?
Apparently, 596 is the in-state toll-free exchange in New Hampshire.
I think Massachusetts has one as well, but I'm not sure what it is.
Do all states have these exchanges available now?
