I use VOIP from http://www.sipphone.com . It seems to work very well. The
audio MIGHT break up when traffic gets heavy (and I don't know where the
congestion is... it might be on my DSL, since I run a server on it, or it
might be somewhere else). SipPhone is pure VOIP in that they do not bridge
to the POTS network (though you can call 800 numbers). It's generally
intended to do free calling to other SipPhone users and users of Free
World Dialup (which the FCC just declared is an "information service"
instead of a "communications service", so it is exempt from various
requirements and taxes). Once you have the SipPhone equipment, there are
no usage fees. After that point, you're really just using their directory
server (my name for it). They also offer free voicemail (the message is
emailed to you) and conference calling.

Fun toy! If you have a calling card from some company that lets you use an
800 (or similar) number, you can use SipPhone to bridge into POTS and call
non-SipPhone customers.
