A very handy feature, but is there a way to tell the newton that an area
code has changed, or the area code *is* needed for local dialling? A
couple of years ago Vancouver changed from 7-digit numbers (no area
code) to 10-digit numbers (area code is part of the number) but my
Newton doesn't know this and I don't know how to tell it. (A second
area code was also added to the Vancouver area, another thing I don't
know how to tell my Newton about...)
