Hi everyone! Well I just wouldn't be without Skype now, they have a service called "Country Unlimited" and for $06.00 a month you can ring any landline in your country of choice for as long as you like, talk about giving phone calls away <smile> so now I just give out my Skype User Name or skype-in numbers and leave it at that.
Now I have a couple of questions, I have the dedicated skype cordless phone system which plugs into my Linksys WAG200G gateway and into the PSTN, that way I can receive calls from both services on the one phone, so far so good but I'm wondering if anyone has any good recommendations for USB Skype phones or cordless phones, they're the type which plug into the USB port of a PC or Mac and (providing the computer is powered on) you can make/receive calls through these devices. Obviously I'm not in any need of one myself but I'm looking on behalf of a friend who doesn't fancy the idea of sitting in front of his PC and nor does he have the money to buy one of the dedicated Skype phones I've mentioned here. The second thing I'd like to comment on is the voicemail that Skype provides, its absolutely first-class but I'd like to make it a little better. With the Message Bank system I have on the landline, people can leave messages and I get a SMS on my mobile phone when messages are pending, is there any way to have Skype voicemail send out a SMS notification? Naturally! I wouldn't mind using a little of my "Skype Credit" if I had to <smile>. Finally, just in case you're wondering, my Skype User Name is grtdane12 Cheers ****************************** Dane Trethowan From Melton Victoria Australia mailto:Dane Trethowan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> phone +61 3 9005 8589 Fax/TTY +61 3 9743 7954 mobile/sms: +614 418 773 532 MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype: callto:grtdane12 ****************************** Jonathan Mosen List Founder Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
