That percentage amazes me.

Anyway, when the other person doesn't have Skype or I want to call an actual phone, I prefer localphone ( http://www.localphone.com/ ). On average I think their rates are cheaper than Skype's (.9 cents/min for US and Canada), plus I can use different clients.

Hi Jach. I work for Localphone, so it’s nice to see us mentioned here! We are definitely cheaper than Skype to most destinations - on a crude country-by-country basis we’re cheaper to at least 95% of countries.

If you weren’t aware, Localphone-to-Localphone calls are free too when using VoIP.
