Watch out BT

After signing up for Skype a few weeks back, I have just returned home from another overseas trip....all calls to my family back home and sons in Australia and Japan worked a treat....fantastic quality.....and all for free. If you haven't yet tried it, I thoroughly reccomend giving it a go. The telecoms industry has to be concerned with VOIP technology ?

Is it that good then? Friends have mentioned it but I haven't tried it yet.

Well definitely worth a try. A colleague of mine has had same experience, brilliant via computer to computer to Oz etc. However, every time I try calling via Skype to landlines in India, UAE, China, Norway etc on biz they either cant hear me properly or the line collapses. Its got a long way to go, but I'm sure it'll be a serious competitor in a few years.
