Technological Success

After our many tech failures, we've actually had a success! Curt bought a VOIP phone. It allows up to call the US over the internet for free. We've been using calling cards, but their rates to cell phones aren't great and the rates to 1-800 numbers are horrendous. We will be able to talk a lot more now when Ian and I are in the US and Curt is in Korea.

That's great, but haven't you been using Skype? I've been talking to home for years for free (computer to computer) or 2 cents/minute (my computer to their phone).

Skype crashed my computer so we've chatted on Skype, but not used it to call. Also, even people I know on Skype I can't find them and they can't find me. I just didn't want to deal with figuring out how to correct that problem. With the VOIP jack, a regular phone is connected so it is easier to talk.
