I totally agree with you, Burg ... but to use Skype, both people need to be connected and it's not always the case. Messenger also offers an audio solution ad it's rather good, but this time again, both people need to be connected on Internet too.
I am always on Internet at work, but if want to call my GF, i do prefer to go outside because I wouldn't like my colleagues hear my conversation.
The solution I suggested above is from phone to phone. Obviously, if you can only use Internet, it's free.
The only matter with my GF is that she lives in an area of Phuket Town where there is not ADSL yet, I guess it will come within 1 year, but right now she uses a modem connection. It's slow. I have tried the audio system on messenger, there is maybe 2 or 3 seconds delay... A bit boring.
Anyway, thanks for your advice
