Hi Jon, Well Skype was one of the reasons I started my Asterisk based business. I first came across a VoIP demo about 12 years ago in a teleco carrier in Altanta GA. At that time the technology was very primitive (most people still had dial up lines). Anyway, to cut a long story short it wasn't until I many years later that I tried Skype, then I knew the technology had finally "arrived" and was good enough for business communications. Here in Canada, long distance is realitvely inexpensive so "cheap" calls are not very important Most of my clients are sold on the feature set in Asterisk and the ability to have extensions in multiple sites/offices without any line costs.
