presto! Free incoming and outgoing phone service. You use your PC's microphone and speakers for the phone. See below


For those of us like me that don't throw anything out and had Sunrocket, you can program your old Sunrocket gizmo and plug in any old normal touch tone phone! For those without a Sunrocket gizmo and wan't to use a real phone instead of their PCs speaker and mic, you can buy these off of ebay.
