RE: RE: Good news for Non BB users, Ip Telephony

["Nikola Kasic" <nikola@xxxxxxx>]

My brother doesn't have broadband, but ISDN.
Can I talk to him, if he uses software instead of IP phone?
I will probably use software too, because IP phones are very expensive.
If that works, I'll jump into this train.

Yup,

1) This is free
2) FWD simply act as the registrar for your phone 'number'.
3) you can't call people on 'normal' phones without a gateway. It's
purely over IP unless you have a gateway or the other end does.

You may be wondering why bother? well it all depends, taking a
favourable example..

My brother lives in Australia
He has broadband costing 35 quid per month

I live in Holland
I have broadband costing 35 quid per month

I can call him over IP for as long as I want, at no cost (since I pay 35
for BB anyhow) so I cut down on my phone bill
