My son called me from Mexico using Skype at two cents a minute. Later we hooked up visualy on skype with him using his laptop by the pool and using my iMac with its camera and audio. Picture was jerky at time but I was amazed, particularly at the cost. As in no cost. I've had skype on my dock for some time but just never used it until he called. Like the laptop when on the road idea. Particularly since I got clipped last year for $300-plus for four less than 10 minute calls from the U.S. to home. jim --- MUGLO information at <http://www.freewebs.com/muglo> Manage your account options at <//www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/lsg2.cgi>
