I don’t see the point.
Does everything have to be digital?
Anyway, I’ve been trying to setup a softphone on my laptop to login to our allworx VoIP system at work. I tried iSoftPhone, with no luck. I finally found X-lite (free), which has both a Windows and Mac version. That works perfectly. Well, almost. It’s good for a softphone anyway. I may have to buy it’s big brother, eyeBeam though, as X-lite doesn’t allow you to transfer calls…. which is a problem.
I just wish they had an educational discount or something.
I’m also looking into getting a bluetooth headset to use with my MacBook. I have a Logitech USB headset which I love to death, but it is a pain to carry around (even though it’s their “notebook” version). I’m looking at the Plantronics Explorer 320, mainly because it’s cheap and still got pretty good reviews.

Voip is great to avoid long distance and international fees seeing as packets don’t care about distance unlike the phone companies.
