Get a Magic Jack much cheaper and they work great.

You do need high speed internet.

You are still talking VOIP, and its efficiency is based upon the upload speed. Make sure you have adequate upload speed before purchasing.
If on DSL or something similar should be no problem if you are paying for enough band width and speed.
MagicJack works purty well with Satellite Internet, but still its controlled by the upload speed.

I know Skype isn't a phone but I just started using it and it's fun so far for family and friends. The delay and broken service can be frustrating at
times but heck..... it's FREE!
