So Skype now has a mobile-to-mobile deal where international calls are basically free. So I was IMing with Taryn and we decided to try it. She was on her laptop, and I was on my iphone, using the wifi at work. The connection was easy to do, and the sound quality was fantastic! It sounded like she was in the room with me, far superior sound to regular calls. I was really impressed. The two things I didn’t like were that I couldn’t use my bluetooth headset (it was a “data” feed, not a regular call, so the headset wouldn’t come on) and the fact that ever time a reminder came up or a call came in it would put Taryn on hold. Regardless, it’s a great way to stay in touch without killing yourself financially. I’ll call it a win.
