...between iSkoot and using a calling card with your cellphone. I use Ohello http://www.ohello.com/ and they have very competitive rates. The international numbers on my cellphone are programmed so they first dial the Ohello number before dialing the actual number - so all I have to do is hit dial.
Sending a sms message with the number you want to dial - all seems like way to much trouble.
I've seen a lot of talk about 'breaking the stranglehold' of the ISPs etc - but when you offer 'free' WiFi, don't you still have to connect to the internet using an ISP. No wonder the ISPs are fighting this - tehy're going to see a huge spike in their bandwidth usage if every user suddenly starts opening up his/her connection as part of a 'community' net.

They need to have teh ability to synch to moile devices - smart phones and PDAS. Do that and I'll happily give up MS Outlook.
