I've been using it for about three years now. It was my phone while I was over in Turkey. It's how my family and I keep in contact for free. I have a brother in Japan I was in Turkey, sister in L.A. and the rest of them reside in PA. Phone tag was a pain but we were all able to talk through skype for free baby.

Skype is great my wife uses it primarily to talk to her grandma and aunt in Hungary. We've done some video calls as well with her brother in Virginia. Its cool to be able to see and talk to someone you don't see often.

Skype released an iPhone app for free this week. You can't use it on your cellular plan though, only with wifi... but it's much better than having to sit at the computer with a headphone/speaker setup.

Someone has had a standalone wifi phone out for a while now that has the Skype app on it. That way whenever I was traveling internationally and I ran into wifi I could have made free calls to my wife/family. I just couldn't justify the $150 for the convenience.
