No more free Skype, kinda

Skype has been threatening to kill unlimited calls within the US since October of 2006. They claimed that on January 1st 2007 we would see a brand new business model. Eager to see how this company will survive the switch, I did a little research. Their site now claims unlimited calls to anyone in the US and Canada for only $14.95. Skype to skype calls are still free of course.

When I logged into my own account this morning my balance of $7.11 still stood. I figure that once it runs out they will most likely try to convert me over to their new plan. Although not free, 15 bucks is still a whole lot better than land line, cell and other voip providers such as Vonage.

Test em out for free and www.tryskype.com
