Next best thing to a 'phone
Hi folks, anybody help me out with some telephony knowledge please?
My son lives some 220 miles away from me in the UK. He's just moved into shared accommodation where he has WiFi broadband access but no access to a BT (type) landline. He also has a mobile phone but a cheap one with no free minutes.
Now, I have a landline that I can ring his mobile on (very expensive to talk frequently) and also broadband.
Apart from Windows Live Messenger using a microphone and speakers, or, buying a couple of (expensive again) Skype phones, does anyone have any further suggestions as to how we can stay in touch cheaply please?
Thanks MTB
