A NYC friend of mine is going to LA california. Will he get roaming
charges? When do his nights begin? 9PM cellphone/local time, or 9pm
home market/address/in this case NYC time? What about long distence to
accept or make calls? What about unlimited direct connect while your
"roaming"/outside of his home area? If his plan has free incoming, will
it work while he is "roaming"/outside of his home area?

Nextel does not have roaming.

Nights are at local time.

Any calls from/to NYC while in LA will be long-distance, but if he has free
incoming he has long distance included, so it won't matter. Any calls to LA
area are considered local. (Check Nextel.com for coverage areas).

He will have his unlimited direct connect, and any user in the South CA area
will be local, but Direct Connect calls back to NYC will be at the
Nationwide Direct Connect rate of $0.10 per minute per phone, unless he has
the Nationwide Direct Connect buy-up plan.

Yes you did, but:

1. It was jumbled in with the quoted text of the OP, making your
response difficult to pick out, and

2. You're not the only reading usenet, and thus aren't the only one
authorized to respond. :)

it was mixed into a quote so I could answer each question separately so
it would no be one run on paragraph.
