I love it, but unfortunately have little time for it. But it works good, really clear even on slower connections.

(RC) · 02-12-2005, 08:04 AM

I'm useing it for my outgoing phone calls also.

aquariumfishguy · 02-12-2005, 08:42 AM

I would, but the only problem I have is that many people haven't "caught on" yet. In other words, you have to have this program to receive a call from someone else that is using it. Am I correct?

(RC) · 02-12-2005, 08:50 AM

No. You can call almost any phone in the world with this program. The cost is around .02-.03 a min for most places. Much cheaper than my long distance was before.

I just use my cell phone that has free long distance.

It's soon to be available on cell phone as well ... http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmp...pcworld/119652 ... now that's what I call "sticking it to the man" ...

aquariumfishguy · 02-12-2005, 10:49 AM

Hmmm... Well it has been a while since I opened that program, but it still on my computer. I should check it out.

How do they bill you, I never entered anything such as my credit card into it when I joined?

(RC) · 02-12-2005, 11:51 AM

You use a credit card if you want to use the part of the program to dial out of the net. You have to have the newest version of the software.

Ahh I see. Thanks for telling us this, I was curious.

Lexus · 02-13-2005, 12:53 AM

I too use my cell phone for free long distance... we also have a great plan on our land line too.

(RC) · 02-13-2005, 07:46 AM

If you lived where I do you wouldn't use your Cell phone for much of anything because we have almost no service for 100s of miles north of us. Great thing about living in the foothills of a mountain.

aquariumfishguy · 02-13-2005, 01:50 PM

Lexus- if you have a great plan on your cell, why bother with a land line? IMO, land lines are way too expensive for what you get... I do have one, but purely for my business. If I had it my way, I’d stick with a cell phone.

Lexus · 02-13-2005, 03:54 PM

I still live with my parents and my mom hates cell phones so she HAS to have her landline

aquariumfishguy · 02-13-2005, 04:04 PM

Ahh that makes perfect sense now.

Yup me a college youngin' get my homecooking and laundry while I can!!!
