We picked up a SkypePhone today; I've been using SkypeOut at my office for years--and it made sense to get a cordless handset @ home for Court to use.
And it seems to work pretty well. Landline calls come in (as do Skype to Skype calls), and you can choose either landline or Skype for all outgoing calls. As soon as there's a stand-alone wifi phone (that comes w/ a built-in browser), I'll be sold.
The phone biz needs to be concerned about right now. I wonder if the future of communication is an IM handle (for text, SMS, voice, or picture), rather than a series of numbers...
Hey Scott--any baby news?

I'm looking forward to google getting into the phone market. I'm thinking the additional competition will finally force the phone companies to focus on offering services instead of focusing on how to charge people more often for existing services. Skype has some well designed protocols. I'm a little surprised more people don't use. (Of course, I don't use it - so... what does that say?)
