Skype is a computer telephone that seems to blow most other phones out of the water. Till the end of the year you can make calls within the U.S, and Canada for nothing. International calls require you to buy a membership for 30 Euros/year.
I believe you will need a microphone or a headset to make this system work.
Has anyone heard about this?
I agree: Skype is pretty good. But I don't like dealing with a headset or microphone.
There is another, similar, service available that is supposed to be better than Skype:
http://www.jajah.com/
With this service, you can just go through your regular phone:
1. Register with JaJah. Give them your phone number.
2. Enter the phone number you want to call.
3. Your landline phone rings. Pick it up and you'll hear it calling
your buddy's number.
4. Talk. If your buddy is JaJah registered, it's a free call;
otherwise .025/minute in U.S. And Canada. (International calls slightly more expensive.)
