land line calls

Wow, you can make calls to land lines for free? This is quite good. It would save me over $50 a month if it really works.

Skype is an amazing service and the quality of the calls are great.

I speak with my brother in Ireland all the time and we havent had one problem with it and is way better than our local telephone provider that we pay $40 per month

I signed up, and signed up for SkypeIN (my own #) too.

Service is awesome and it was setup in under 5 minutes for me!

Works great, now I just need a USB phone...

Have you guys seen the new netgear WiFi Skype PHone?

Access to skype wherever WiFi is available no PC needed! That could be handy for starbucks hoppers lol!

That's really pretty cool. However, is that a step forward or backward from traditional cell phones? I suppose it would ultimately depend on where you are calling and how long your on the line. Those long distances charges can really addup quick.

It's cool because it's a free service to go skype->skype users. You basicaly own the hardware and if you need to call a friend or whoever who has skype and you have wifi access you can.. so it's a nice addition to our communication arsenal

Skype depends on your pc processing power. If you have a crappy pc then skype will run like crap cutting in and out all the time and hearing echos.

The best soution is to go with a hardware voip.

Either a VoIP Phone or an Analog Telephone Adapter which you plug into a router thats connected to your high speed modem.

As long as you have agood high speed connection all will be running perfectly!
