yes.

seriously though...you can pay monthly. I know someone who uses it all the time when calling their parents in the U.S. and they say it's rather reliable. since they don't have a land line and always use their cell, it's far cheaper (he pays $3/mth unlimited calling which sounds crazy cheap)

I wonder how transmissions from us to Mid-Far east are going with it these days. SEA-ME-We-4 and FLAG lines are damaged. Speed is incredibly slow over there now.

cool! i work in the telecom industry and this is the first i've heard of this thing. the only downside i can see is if your computer crashed or the power went out you don't have a phone.
