I just thought I would share this, since I haven't seen this discussed before, although I have seen plenty of discussions on adding 911. I wanted to add 411 support, but didn't really want to pay for it. It's not something I use often anyway and can certainly live without it. Still, if it can be done why not add it. ;D
Currently there are only two free 411 providers that I could find. They are:
[24]7 Inc.
Toll free: 1-888-247-2425
Non-toll free: 1-330-247-7411
FREE-411
Toll free: 1-800-373-3411
I set up 411 service using the [24]7 Non-toll free number since I have Google Voice and it doesn't cost me anything. To do that, I went to Obi Expert, then under Service Providers >> ITSP Profile A General, I changed the DigitMap from:
(1xxxxxxxxxx|<1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx|011xx.|xx.|(Mipd)|[^*#]@@.)
to
(<411:18003733411>S0|1xxxxxxxxxx|<1>[2-9]xxxxxxxxx|011xx.|xx.|(Mipd)|[^*#]@@.)
This seems to work fine for me, but if there is a better way to do it, please let me know.
Take care...

I can't imagine using 411 service. Haven't had a need for it in many years. Look it up on the computer...
