I just saw this when browsing the Firefox site...

Originally, I thought it was just a form of VoIP, but it's actually different to Skype, Vonage, etc... because you still use your standard landline (unless I've completely misunderstood

)

JAJAH is an innovative and simple way to make cheap phone calls using the Internet without headphones, microphones or having to install any software at all.

JAJAH is just like using your regular phone, only a lot cheaper!
What is the difference between JAJAH and other VoIP services?
The calls made through JAJAH WEB are phone-to-phone, which means you don’t need a headset, a microphone or a special phone to use it, so you don’t have to be tied to your computer. JAJAH WEB also uses the web browser, so you don’t have to download or install any kind of software to use it. Using JAJAH WEB is as simple and as comfortable as placing a regular phone call, only much cheaper.
How much does it cost?
The first 5 minutes are free for any landline destination! Later the rates change according to your destination and the type number you are calling (mobile or regular).

Gonna test this out tomorrow when I'm not so sleepy but this looks like a really cool idea - let's just hope it lives up to my expectations
