 well the co.uk domain says its coming soon.


Anyway, looks basically like VoIP is a way of reducing long distance 
calls rather than doing practically free calls.

so theres two options:

 1) talk with some one whos also running the same software

 2) go via switchboard and they make calls to normal phones. am i on the 
same page as you guys?

"Exorbitant startup costs?
I think freelance IT must have about the lowest startup costs possible..."

err well basically AFAIK i got ripped off by BT as regards to the set up fee and the winding up fee,so in that respect yes, but i guess youre right about the freelance IT people having not much to worry about.
