I just bought a $60/year plan to call world-wide. Unlimited (well, probably limited to 10 000 minutes) but I'm OK with that. I LOOOOOOVVVVVE Skype. I just bought a $60/year plan to call world-wide.

I know you (from Moon's blog, of course). Thanks for dropping a note. I just have to get my family to get set up with Skype, and I'll be set to go. And Mac...ah, that's my next purchase. The school system all over the Yukon uses Mac. Hi Baino! I know you (from Moon’s blog, of course). Thanks for dropping a note.

Skype is sensational and I'm with Moon, you don't need to pay for it PC to PC . . .it's my lifeline to a wonderlust daughter currently in Europe. Not to mention bloggers, relatives and friends overseas and all it cost was $99 for a decent pair of Sannheiser headphones (although with the Mac you just talk to the screen baby!)

I've never heard of them before. It's still much cheaper with Skype, but the advantage of Westcan, I guess, is being able to call using your telephone. DBM: I'll keep you informed. I had tried Skype over a year ago, but it was very flaky. This time, all went very smoothly. No problems yet. That’s interesting Murray. I’ve never heard of them before.

They even told me to stop calling last time I called - apparently if I wait a month or two, all will be just fine. Hmmmmm...............
