Forgot mention it, though I guess those with dial-up already know this: a
reasonably fast connection is in order for this to work well.

Lookin' good there, Don. I have downloaded the program and will start
using it.
A suggestion for those with kids / family spread out like mine [Antigua,
San
Diego and moving to Alaska, Atlanta, SC moving to VA]: the free Skype
online
telephone program and a cheap web cam [$13 including shipping on eBay]
lets
you see and talk to anyone anywhere in the world with the Skype program
for
free using your computer microphone and speakers, or a headset. We got
our
first views of our quite pregnant dughter over it and chatted with her
while
watching her cats play around the room. One of our friends used theirs to
watch, hear and talk to the grandchildren as they opened Christmas
presents.
Nothing but good to say about it so far. You can use it as a camera-phone
to any computer and they can type responses back if they don't have a web
cam or a microphone. The program lets you know how many others are making
calls at the same time - usually @ 4 - 5 million. SO of the child in
Antigua uses it for all international long-distance calls at his business,
though calls to a regular phone do have a cost - but far cheaper than
normal
telephone calls. We are sending web-cam's with built in microphones to
our
kids.
