Even if you have Majic Jack in your house with a 352 area code, calls to your 352 Majic jack number are long distance. Most permanent residents have Embarq, while some use Comcast, but then use their cell phone for long distance calling.
I would think this concern is fading. Most people now have plans which include free long distance anyway.
