I just made a bunch of telephone calls via Google phone. I'm blown away. I knew about Skype but it seemed to demand a computer on the other end as well as a fee for using it.
After downloading the google voice/video plug-in an icon appeared under the Chat area on the left side and clicking on it and using the pop-up dialler, I was able to make numerous free (in-Canada and the US) long-distance phone calls with excellent sound quality. My old mike was the weakest part of the chain. It connected to landlines impeccably and to a cell-phone with no problem.
It's obviously aimed to undercut Skype and seems much easier. It does tho demand W-XP or later to my knowledge. I'm going to see if it can work on a newer machine with W98. I'm doubtfull.
