eddiefromrotherham Member Registered: 03/21/02 Posts: 788 Loc: Rotherham,England.	Thanks for the link Bill It seems strange that Ebay would want to acquire a VoIp company. The Article suggests that Ebay may want their customers to be able to talk to each over the phone rather than by email, which to me has always been a pain anyway and doesn't always work. In fact whenever I have sent a mail to a prospective seller, I have yet to receive an answer....... cheers Eddie ------------------ Eddie from Rotherham Skype:eddiefromrotherham www.yamahakeyboards.info _________________________ Eddie from Rotherham http://www.music2myears.plus.com
