another quickie.. let's say my friend n i have a hotlink number which came from the same region (eg: both bought n the number is in the central region). this wud mean me making a local call. if one of us calls fr the north (eg: penang), does it mean i'd b charged local call as well or not?

does having the phone number from the same region make any difference in terms of rate charged?  or the rate just depends on the location of the user?
