Skype Handset
I was goin to using Skype but wanted to get feedback from others who use it. first off I dont have a web cam?
I dont want to use it for that purpose not yet anyway. I use Grandcentral right now but I need a different area code..Im looking for a service that will let me CHOOSE my area code and let me call forward that number to my cell phone or house phone so I can use my phone not a handset or my microphone.
I also heard SKype uses SMS you see there are certain people that I want to get to know but dont want them to have my actual number. I will also like to text my associates using my skype number not my actual number..online friends people I just met at the club etc..Business associates you know
With everything said if anyone knows of a service that meet those requirements preferably free like Grancentral but unlikely I know lol..I want to make outgoing calls and receive them on a number of my choice and possibly send SMS with that same number
Excuse the Typo..
thanks Bigi I’ll check out the forums there to..ALso im looking for other suggestions as well not just skype
Skype works fine for me. It will do the forwarding and letting you choose the area code. Skype does SMS but I don’t know if it can be setup the way you want it. I suggest you go the skype users forum and post your question there.

Skype Hacks $16.27 If you’ve heard about Skype–and who hasn’t with all the recent media attention devoted to Internet telephone services–chances are you’ve been mighty tempted to try it out. Skype Hacks tells you what all the Skype hype is about, explains the basics, and shows you more than 100 clever tips and tricks for tweaking and tuning Skype to make it do just what you want and more. Millions of people (48 million and counting, in fact) have opted for Skype, which uses peer-to-peer (P2P) technology to turn any PC, Mac, or Pocket PC into a telephone. Skype offers free calls between computers and extremely cheap calls to old-fashioned phone numbers (landlines and mobile phones). The sound quality is excellent, and end-to-end encryption means the connection is private and secure. But if you really know what you’re doing, Skype can accomplish a whole lot more than that. Software developer and author Andrew Sheppard recently converted his entire house to Skype and uses it for all his personal and business calls, even when he’s traveling. In Skype Hacks, he shows you how to do things with the technology that even the engineers at Skype probably never intended. Skype Hacks shows you how to: Get started with Skype Figure out how much money you’re saving and maximize your savings Cut the ties to your old phone company Optimize your Skype configuration Integrate Skype with desktop tools like Microsoft Office and your web browser Set up a Skype-based call center The book offers ideas for creating and organizing a contacts list, using Skype to transfer files, taking advantage of chat and voicemail capabilities, turning a PDA into a mobile phone, and automatingSkype for even greater efficiency. So whether you’d simply like to give Skype a trial run, you want new Skype ring tones and fun on-hold music, or you’re considering wiring your home with Skype to get rid of regular phone service altogether, Skype Hacks is your ideal guide. |
