Like Wess I use Skype. Brilliant concept but maybe it's because I can't get broadband, the quality isn't always good. Two people can't talk at the same time plus you have the cost of both of you being online. That means the lady is also paying for the call.
It's great but just need to take note of the possible downside.
Wess that is euros on the Skype .o17 euros wich is about 2 cents US a minute still very very good. It is about 6 cents us outside of Moscow and St. Peters. You must remember too with Skype that if you are not talking to another computer at the other end the problems could be in the phone lines.
When you talk from cumputer to computer it is free you only pay when you call from your computer to a phone either cell or landline groon. And every phone card I bought was six or seven cents a minute or had a service fee and more if you are calling to a cell(why is that). I have two twenty dollar phone cards someone can have if they want them, I will give you the codes. I bought two phone cards and can not use them. I live in a condo and have to have a land line so people can get up to see me from down below,you know security right, anyways it is a long story I hate the local phone company and do not have any long distance service so I can not call out with a calling card, any way if you want a calling card let me know!
Also, I make all my calls cellular. I don't have a landline. Nextel doesn't seem to have a problem calling Ukraine on a calling card. I have a speakerphone on mine so I conference. Only one disconnect.
