I just wanted to let everybody know about www.skype.com. It's a neat
VoIP program that lets you do free computer - computer calls, and has
cheap rates if you call a real phone line.
They have versions for Windows, OS X, and Linux.
I've been playing around with VoIP a lot lately. If you want to see some
cool stuff, check out asterisk. www.asterisk.org

I'm just starting to use Broadvoice.com's BYOP (Bring your own phone)
and linphone.
So far, it seems to work pretty well.
I'll let you know if I still like it afte I've had a chance to use it a
bit more.

Ed,
I called the USA from Brazil last week and talked for 1/2 hour. Used an
IAXy analog-phone to VoIP box from Digium.com and the Nufone.net service.
The IAX protocol (supported by Asterisk) can go through firewalls and NAT
translations. You just hook the box up to an Ethernet that has DHCP

That's what I like about the IAX protocol, it's NAT friendly and perfect
for what Im using it for. The hardware is fairly cheap as well. I
bought a Digium x100p card that I hooked up my incoming line to so callers
coming in come into asterisk and then can ring extensions, check vmail,
etc.
You don't have to put any money into it. Check out some of the soft
phones from Xten or sipphone. I actually bought a SIP phone for $89 just
so the wife wouldn't have to talk with a headset. That's all I needed to
do the asterisk to asterisk comm. I spent $100 to buy a card to hook up

If you want to see some cool voip hardware checkout some of the wireless

That's what an FXS port is for, it provides dial tone and other functions
that a CO would provide. I don't know if you could plug your entire phone
'network' into it or not. You might try asking or searching the
asterisk-users mailing list, it's a very active list.
