    I know Nathan mentioned this some time ago - but I GOT SKYPE!!!

    I downloaded it today and it works fine even with the mini mike in the laptop. But I also picked up a headset on Ebay (new) for just 1p! though �£2.99 shipping which I was quite happy with.

    I is a happy, happy bunny! (alright - pusscat!)

    We've had it a long time and speaking to our friends in the UK and USA.

    I'm already talking to a few people on GC, MMD ... it's great.

    Had it about a year, great for sending files as well as chat.
    Got a web cam too but usualy can't be bothered to use it, I know what me mate in Devon looks like anyway.

    What about having our Skype IDs in our profile here, why only ICQ and AIM? I've never used ICQ and only have AIM as it's part of AOL.
    If you decide you don't want somebody on your list it's easy to exclude them.

    Cheers MIKE

    I have been using Skype for ages (well at least a year!) and have found it incredibly helpful and easy to use.

    Having the ability to speak to people across the other side of the world for nothing is amazing!

    Take care

    Paul

    I've put my Skype ID in my profile in the box provided for AIM (as Skype = "myID"), it now shows right at the bottom when you access my profile.
    I found the voice works much better when you plug the phones into the phone socket instead of the mic socket and vice versa. [​IMG] :rolleyes:
