I'm wondering: if I'm visiting the US and planning to spend a couple of months in one city, is there an advantage to having a cellphone number with the area code local to that area? Or does it make no practical difference? Most other countries don't have geographic cellphone numbers... I've been offered a good deal on a SIM card but its area code is for a city 2000 miles away (and you can't change it). Thanks for advice!

Currently my parents have area code 123 (sample) and we just moved to an area with area code 456(sample). How can I keep my 123 area code number because my parents have this number for more than 15 years. I called Qwest and they said they can't do anything about it since it's a different area code. I really hope that we can keep the number. Pls help me here, I dont know where I can seek help except qwest (which the representatives can't really help me at all) Thanks!!
