Telephone for Skype and landline
 
This looks interesting if you use skype. This phone can connect to the landline and plug into the computer using USB at the same time.

Isn't there one available where you can just shove it into a spare network port on your router so you don't have to have your PC switched on to make a VOIP call?

Just to mention to all those VoIP users out there in CF land that you can now call to any UK land line (01 or 02 codes) for FREE and NO CONNECTION fee with 1899's new service.

http://www.call1899.co.uk/voip.php

Calls to mobiles are charged at 2ppm

Also worth noting that calls to the USA, Germany and Canada are also free. The quality's not that great but it's acceptable seeing as your not paying for it.

Wonder if any of the other providers will go down this route?
