"An Internet Phone program, that allows you to talk to friends anywhere in the world, using the Internet and the free Firefly software. The interface is very easy to use, just punch the number of your (Firefly) contact, or select it from the address

book. The program also includes a voicemail feature to keep track of calls while you are away or talking to someone else. The program uses your internet connection and voice over IP technology, so there is no charge for these calls. The people you call however need to have the FireFly software installed. We tested the software with an international call (USA to Canada and Australia), and the voice quality was excellent. The program can also make calls to regular landline phones, however this is based on a per minute charges. "

"A tiny and easy to use Internet phone, that uses a simple UDP-based protocol, which works very well with NAT Internet sharing. The program is a single executable file, just

start it, enter the IP address (or computer name) of the other party and connect. You will hear a ringing sound upon connection and have the option to take or deny the call.

PicoPhone can handle multiple connections if your audio system supports it. In addition, you can open a text chat session with the other part, or send a short text message.

Needless to say, that whoever you want to call, needs to have a copy of PicoPhone. However, since the program is so small, it can be easily attached to an email. The interface is plain and simple but does everything you need. " --Download.com

or even better than regular phones, and requires no additional equipment, besides a normal PC microphone or headset. The Skype interface is similar to popular instant messenger clients and allows you to create a profile, with optional picture, that will be displayed when you call other Skype users or receive incoming call. The program is very easy to use, and works with firewalls and NAT without any additional configuration

changes. Basically, all you have to do is download, select a Skype username and you are ready to make or receive calls. "  --Snapfiles.com
