I'll give you one. My nephew was recently in Japan for an exchange student program. My mother wanted
to call him and wanted a cheap way to do it. Net2Phone was the answer. 6 cents a minute. I put the
software on her computer and we dialed the number. In Japan all the phones apparently have either
special rings or at his host parents home have a voice that tell you who is calling. The VOIP came in
as a local 'public phone booth' which for the family was disturbing being at 6AM (they suggested the
time). Causing them to have my nephew ask why first, and thinking that I had popped over to visit.
