Following up on my own post, but it seems that the "Extended Network"
indicator on Verizon phones is not a good indicator of whether or not
the roaming is included, or at extra charge (on the old America's
Choice plan). When I was calling from the Everglades, the "Extended
Network" was solid rather than flashing, so I should have been charged
for those calls--but I wasn't. They never showed up on my bill.
