Some more info on the (W) German charging methods:
The current charge per unit is 0.10 DM, about $ 0.026.
There are only three charging zones: local; within 50 KM,
and the rest of W. Germany.
These are somewhat different for business lines, for whom
the clock also runs faster.
On weekends and evenings/nights, the clock runs 40% slower.

PS The German PTT is about the only W European PTT that does
not accept credit calls. They do accept collect calls.
