	Based on my experiences with COCOTs in New York, I'd say that the
New England Telephone vs. COCOT example is typical.  In New York, the NYTel
pay phones are much cheaper than the Funny Fones, not to mention that they
are, in general, less featurefull.  I seem to remember having trouble
making certain toll-free calls (i.e. they cost money).
