Does anybody know how I can call America collect from a phone that isn't public?

I second using Skype. It's what I used all the time I was in Japan, and if your parents get it too, the call is virtually free. I think I put £11 on my skype credit for the whole year and didn't run out until 4 months after I finished the year.
