You buy an online number in one of over 25 locations and your friends, family or business contacts can call that number and only pay for a standard rate call – the online number uses the internet to route the call and so saves them money. It makes absolutely no difference wherever you are, you can pick up the call at no cost to you wherever in the world you are logged into Skype.
Yes, folks, sad but true, 'Canada' is not in that list. Out of 25 countries, it is a great wake-up fool slap in the face to learn that the Great White North is less technologically with it than Malta, than the Dominican Republic, than Romania.
ah ... so ... that explains why I was unable to find any vendors willing to sell Skype/WiFi phones! I was most shocked when the clerk at The Source gave a flat 'No' to the query, and here I was thinking maybe it was something only politely sinister like a backroom deal that gave them rights to sell the Sympatico USB Stick-it providing they skipped on the Skype (kinda like why you could buy Guiness but no Beamish here in Ontario). But no, boys and girls, it was far more sinister than that, as Bell is the Gatekeeper of the Numbers, so they could nip the skype in the bud way before it got to the retail level!
Anyone want to join me in a big sigh?
I suppose, for all the land calls I get, I could just get a Brazilian landline phone number. Or South Africa. Would cut down on the telemarketing ... or at least make it more interesting.
