    phooaarrr ... me one looks a bit of alright ... but does that headset look like someone put it there (badly) with Paint Shop Pro or something ...

    Back on topic:
    has anyone used either of them?

    [edit]
    And I just saw this on the pc-telephone site:

    Getting Started:

    Download PC-Telephone FREE
    Get a PC-Telephone calling card
    ... and start calling worldwide!

    I take it the Pc-telephone calling card would not be free....

    no the calling card is NOT free;)
    if you check back with their site, you sill see that you can buy call credit.

    It isnt really very good, have a look at FWD, http://www.freeworlddialup.com/ it's an amazing service, it will also let you call us and uk 800 numbers for free.
