What really turned me on Skype users new phone, you can buy before you take the Skype Software. So, now you can use a regular phone rather than talking through your computer. I sat in the back yard I'm mapping my coffee talk with my family in the north.
I bought two phones from Amazon. First time Netgear Dual Mode Cordless Phone with Skype. Love this phone. Dual Mode to connect to your phone lines and in your broadband Internet connection. No computer needed. Enter your Skype account from your phone and you may have used the line! It is also cordless so you can go anywhere around your home. I walked with a neighbor 3 houses down and did not have a problem.
Battery life is 12 hours of talk time and 120 hours standby. Far more than the last cordless phone that I should be held responsible for any night.
I also bought a Netgear SPH101 Skype Wi-Fi Phone. No computer is needed and you can use it anywhere a wi-fi connection can be lifted. Schools, offices, coffee shops. This will be great for college. I bring when I travel and I can call from anywhere in the world for money.
We have Wi-Fi to work so I can stay connected and make calls from outside for a long time to get caught in the telephone company.
Setup two phones really easy. Even cavemen can do. Call quality on both phones are almost the same. Calss most obvious is true. Some little late. I can say is equal and quality access to mobile phone use. Although not as crystal clear as a regular line, I've never had a problem hearing one another.
So if you want to save you tons of money long distance to look into this new Skype phone and get your spare time and calls for almost anything.
