There is Skype, which is proprietary, and services like Pulver.com Free
World Dial, the latter of which uses standard SIP for signalling and
standard RTP encapsulated voice audio.  Both are free services.

With Free World Dial, you can either use a SIP softphone
(http://www.xten.com) or an analog telephone adapter (ATA) such as the
Sipura SPA-2000 (http://www.sipura.com).  The "hard" ATA allows you
to use a regular physical telephone with the service - it 'converts'
analog voice to IP packets.  RJ-11 on the home side, and RJ-45 on the
pubic Internet side.

Neither service today connects seamlessly to the PSTN, which is something
you get with Vonage and which is not a free service.
