Yes. My sister uses it. And we all hate it for several reasons. The sound quality after passing through several analog-digital conversions is awful, and the delay is very noticeable. Neither issue is noticed when talking skype-to-skype, however. I'd suggest you look at gizmo and sip instead of skype. It seems to have better voice quality, and it's an open protocol so you can use any number of providers and compatible hardware. People install asterix servers and work with SIP to do all kinds of cool things. In short, don't do skype; there are better alternatives. Also check into asterix PBX software. There are many asterix gurus on this list. Michael > > Thanks in advance, > Brad > > > > > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ > Moody friends.
