As Alastair said, looking into a real VOIP provider will give you far
more flexibility with what you do with your number and also would
probably work out cheaper than skype if you use it a lot. �Also if you

the telephones are overall much more reliable than skype ones.
I've got a great skype set-up with a decent destkop mic. One of the aims
is to use that instead of a hand-held phone. 90% of my calls involve me
writing lots of things down so sitting at the mac is perfect. using
iPhone out and about will do for me though I note the point about
dedicated handsets.
I went ahead in the end and ordered 3 months' worth. I have a Euro
package fo r5 quid a month, "unlimited". Not sure how I could do a lot
better than that (and don't really care, to be honest. i already use
skype a lot and simple is good for me).
I just need to see how well it works out in practice! I'll report back.
