*************************************************** Communication(1)The recommendation of cheap international call ***************************************************
Today, I'll tell you about phones. This is applicable to all countries,.,.(MAYBE) If you have a plan to go abroad, there are good information. See it and use it,.,. I've never had a trouble from SKYPE,.,.,
Everyone, when you go abroad, what communication tool do you usually use ? I know these,.,. -Land lline phone -Cellular phone -Letter -E-mail -Messanger or chat rooms -yahoo,Msn and skype etc- -chikka
In my case, I mainly use "SKYPE"and"E-mail". Both of them are through the internet, and one is call and text -enabled.
Perhaps, there are much cheaper servises in the world. I just want to introduce mine. ( http://www.skype.com/ )
***What's the difference between Yahoo,Msn and SKYPE?***
The functions of SKYPE are the following, 1-"You can talk to somebody using PC-PC for free" 2-"You can send or share your files" 3-"you can talk to somebody while viewing the person" 4-"You can send SMS( I don't recommend it to you. This is a bit expensive.)" 5-"You can talk to somebody who has a landphone or cell phone.(SKYPEOUT)" I wanted to expound"No,5". I think this is cheap.
Call rate.
ex1)If you pay 10euros, you can call for about 10 hours.
ex2) *When you call using SKYPE, you can see the call rate.This is international call from Baguio(Philippines)*(As of 2006 SEPT 1euro=150yen)
To a land phone in Japan 1min 0.019euro*150yen=2.85yen(1.2Peso) To a cell phone inJapan 1min 0.128euro*150yen=19.2yen(8Peso) To a land phone in Korea 1min 0.017euro*150yen=2.55yen(1.1peso) To a cell phone in the Philippines 1min 0.202euro*150yen=30.3yen(P12.62) To a cell phone in Malaysia 1min 0.047euro*150yen=7.05yen(P2.9)
What do you think of this price? I think if you use common telecommunication line, it costs 2-3times more.
When I called a bank in Japan, I could use"keypad tone". It's convenient .^^
**************************************** In my case, when I call home urgently, at first, I use this"SKYPEOUT" and after I recognize my family are in my home, I use the free "SKYPE" services.
