Not the free one but the one that lets you call any phone any where from your computer? Price now is 14.95 a year.I wanna use it with dsl, if you read my other thread you know I'm gonna give up the cable company and save a hundred bucks a month.
I'm wondering how is the quality, any problems with the service. I've got my cell for incoming calls.

Yes, I use a headset..
I would also consider the landphone option with a Skype phone number, for recieving calls as well..

Do you know offhand how much that runs? Also do you know what happens to the call if your computer is not on? What kind of headset do you have?
Thanks Fran I probably should email you but I think this will answer all my questions.
I've read the ads and the website I appreciate talking to someone that actually uses the service.
