Glad to know you haven't disappeared completely John! I agree it's limited
but free long distance calls without blocking up your main phone line sounds
quite tempting.

Having looked at their website it looks like a 'voice' version of
Messenger to me - the other people you want to talk too would also have
to be registered with Skype so its usefulness may be limited.

I've read a couple of articles about it (one in The Sunday Times last
week) and it got good reviews. It's free and supposed to be ideal for
broadband users especially, I understand you just need a mike and
speakers or headset. There's also a PDA version available. My worry is
that it is from the originators of Kazaa and I don't want to try it
until I'm assured that there's no danger of spyware, spam etc. The URL
is www.skype.com.

Been wondering about VOIP. Do you have a URL for it? Does it need a
boatload of special equipment or is there a cheap phone available?
