> Have you looked at Skype - http://www.skype.com/
A quick glance seems to suggest that one must buy credits in order to talk to regular "old-fashioned" numbers. Seeing that most of our phone calls would be to local folks, this seems a bit of an odd solution to me (admittedly at first glance). the service is free but you have to pay cut-rate international long distance rates to call your next door neighbor in the States... Also, maybe I'm missing it, but how do local (Everett, WA, USA) telephone exchange users call me? There seems to be no answer at the site, am I missing it? Also, what about emergency services? They're part of the package with Verizon, but I see no mention with Skype. -- -- will "If my life weren't funny, it would just be true; and that would just be unacceptable." - Carrie Fisher ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:140464 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
