Skype

My wife has been in Japan for the past two weeks and we’ve been testing out Skype, the free P2P internet telephone, to keep in touch. We found the sound quality excellent. We had a problem with feedback/echo through a laptop microphone, but once we switched to headphone/microphone sets it worked fine. (The actual ‘phone’ is a software device that appears on screen.)

Skype is easy to set up and the interface is simple. SIPphone, a genuine VoIP service, may offer even better sound but it is more complicated to use.
