Skype very kindly emailed me, with a nice image-based email, to tell me I can use the Skypehone S2 (see my ‘lived-in’ review here), or another Skype-enabled mobile to save money when I call abroad:
International calls from your mobile at great rates. Skype To Go is exclusive to our monthly subscriptions. Simply call the Skype To Go number – it’s a local number – from your mobile and talk unlimited* to countries within your subscription.
Skype also suggest that I might want to get a Skypephone because they are great:
The 3 Skypephone is a stylish mobile with Skype included. Make free Skype-to-Skype calls at the push of a button, plus now call phones and mobiles abroad on Skype at great low rates.
Either way round, Skype is a useful service for those obsessed with long calls to far-flung places, or those with lots of friends toting the Skype client – or both! Check out Skype’s website here.
