Last year I paid a sump lump for unlimited calls PC to land-line no. within US and Canada for the whole year. Plus I paid $14CAN for all other calls out of US/CAN region,minutes talked and deducted from $14. This year new rules; I am confused, do I have to pay $15 for 5 months plus $3/month for unlimited calls within US/CAN from PC to landline no.???? do I understand this correctly? Would somebody please explain the cost within US/Can from PC to landline no!!!!!!!!

Josh said himself at the meeting yesterday that he would be there for ‘couple of months’ before moving to London office.

Estonia is where they have all their engineering talent. most of the people who worked for niklas and janus in the early days are still working for the company. it is one part of skype, ebay didn’t destroy with its meddling and to me estonia is what skype is all about.

thanks

That leaves London rudderless in terms of leadership and puts into question the future of the London HQ.
