I have used Logitech with great results!!!

Out of all the listers out there, just wondering if there is anybody that uses your mac for a telephone? I'd really like to unhook the telephone and go straight internet for everything. Can this be done? on a PPC Mac? I am aware of Skype and others like that... but I'm curious what experience others have had, good or bad.

Re: Dial-A-Mac?
Skype is very good and reasonable except that you have to be at your computer to receive a call(I think). It's difficult to figure out their system if your a Mac person, it's not very intuitive.

Re: Dial-A-Mac?
If you pay them for a phone number, you can have it forward to a mobile phone or to a landline if you want. For me, this is an *excellent* companion to a cell phone. I haven't had any problems figuring out their system, of course I'm an engineer, with both PC and Mac experience...
