bigjimbishop Posted January 18, 2005 Author Share Posted January 18, 2005 Oh and no tax on the Skype calls if when you sign up you say you live outside EuropeIt's 1.7cents/minute plus about 0.3 cents/minute for avarage dialup chargeThe beauty is that skype to skype is free and the very highest quality audio, ideal for talking to Grandma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gwenhwyfar Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 Maude - have you looked at:http://www.gossiptel.comTheir system might work with older versions of windows? Skype only works with Mac OSX or later and gossiptel doesn't appear to work with Macs (ominous silence when I emailed their customer service to ask!).
