Skype Phone Number

Well, I'm sorry to say that I will not have a phone number for Skype. I refuse to pay $24 a year to have a phone number when I wont have it turned on enough to need a phone number for it. And that was with a $30 discount. And I'm not even sure if that discount was for the first year or not. I'm not going to have Skype running or even have the PSP running constantly so it's just not worth it. If I want to use it to call someone it will only be because either Chip is on the phone and wont let me use it or if were not even home and I am too cheap to use the cell phone and we are near a WiFi hotspot. Which reminds me, I am gonna need to find out how to use the AT&T WiFi hotspots with my PSP. I know it works with my laptop but I can't get it to work with my PSP. T-Mobile has WiFi hotspots too but since I get AT&T hotspots free because of my DSL why pay more when I will probably only use it once a year you know? I've yet to even use it as it is.

Skype for PSP

Well, today we went to Game Stop at the mall and bought the "PSP Slim Skype Headset Kit" for $32.16 (after taxes) and made a call my friend Sue. Chip talked to her for nearly 45 min but then I was able to talk to her for awhile until Big Brother after dark started. The quality of the phone call was really amazing. I'm able to walk around the house, even go outside, just as long as I stay inside my wifi zone. With my regular telephone I get a lot of static because the cordless phone in my room is too far away from the main base in the living room so it's nice to not have any static. So, I'm going to use my PSP from now on to make phone calls. Usually I can't get on the phone because Chip is always on the phone hehe.
