Well, I happen to have a bunch of friends which are not tech geeks, as well
as my family members. They can follow instructions to use Skype without
bothering me. Plus, I am using SkypeIn/SkypeOut plan. I don't have a cell
phone. So I hope I can continue using it on my new handset. Probably I will
wait for a while to purchase later version of Neo when I have time to hack
it. Currently, to save time, I will choose N810, which has everything I need
out of the box.
PS: If you wanna call a traditional telephone from a VoIP client, there must
be a company providing the service to bridging Internet and telephony
network, right? Do you have such open source solutions? I think the company
need to pay money to telephony service operator. Who will pay it?
Cheers,
Forrest
