Skype ID: ohmelovelo

For some time now, Brian has been using Skype to communicate with Meher's parents in India. Minoo and Homai aren't geeks so Brian bought SkypeOut and connects to their telephone at $.17/min.

Brian, Meher, Neil, and Jeanne are traveling to India to visit Minoo and Homai. He convinced me to install Skype to communicate while they're in India. He will install Skype on Minoo's PC, too, with the hope that they can convert from telephone via SkypeOut to VoiP sans telephone.

Tuesday, we tested it and it's sure neat, circuit clear as possible, even very little feedback from notebook speakers to microphone. Disadvantage being tied to PC microphone/headset but Brian has Bluetooth headset, mainly for his cell, and is installing a hack to his PC Bluetooth access point that will make his headset an audio device and enable him to walk around. For now, unless/until I become more Skype centric, I'll use a microphone on a stalk.

They arrive in India today, 2 PM EST and midnight India time. SAC will be first test.
