I've just signed up for Skype myself and am very impressed with the quality. Works out to be 0.017 Euros or around 3c to call back home. My mum couldn't notice any difference in quality when I spoke to her the other day.
Thumbs up. I remember 10 years ago when I first went overseas, I was only able to speak for 10 minutes and $10 later in charges.
