I don't mind setting up a proper SIP phone and piercing holes in the firewall; I'd rather prefer to do it in a way I control than have Skype obfuscate its way through whatever ports it manages to use. Whether Skype's GUI is easy and convenient to use is also a matter of taste. One of the worst in my personal opinion. But with Skype, you get no choice. > and thus a huge bunch of people use it. This is the real problem, though. In reply to “please call me on Skype”, I really can't tell everyone to do the above instead. > plus: they got really good pr! ask average joe what kind of "phone over > the internet" he knows -- most people will answer "skype". Their prices are NOT the best on the VoIP market, at least for calling to countries they don't consider a priority, such as Russia.
