Just called my friend in Holland using Skype to land line for the first time. We talked for a tad

over 15 minutes. Total cost was $0.42. Very clear - as clear as the telephone.

Skype on a land line???

Didn't know you could do that...

To a POTS phone? I bet the picture quality sucks ;-)

I suppose they could do voice only pretty easy.

What is POTS? The call was made to his home telephone number. He answers and talks through the
phone, as normal, and I talk through the computer microphone. No video. Sound was fantastic though,
clear as a bell.



What is POTS?

Plain Old Telephone Service, Mr. Intellect.

Why thank you, Mr. Veracity!
