    Thanks for the heads-up, Joubs! Been reading a lot about Skype lately. "Bring her home on the telephone..." :roll:

    Yes, it's already built-in, rbpops. Try it.

    Has anyone here been successful at purchasing SkypeOut credit? It won't accept any of my local cards (Citibank and BPI Mastercard), though I normally use these for my oniine transactions.

    BTW, make sure to frequently use the Check for Update function of Skype.

    jasondv.

    I've been trying it out for a couple of days now. Strange thing is that the Mac-to-Mac connection (with berniej) was choppy, but the Mac-to-Windows conversation (with bogs) was very clear. Does anyone else have the same experience?

    I agree. Tried it out with my cousin in Seattle (on a Windows PC) and had considerably more success than with Horace on a Mac in California.

    Sounded well with me when I tested it with George (GeeCube) who is based in Phoenix.
