Have recently got Skype (phone over the internet thing) up and running at home and found the quality to be excellent. The only problem is that I am currently using a headset and it isn't the same experience as using a handset like for a normal phone.
Does anyone know if there is such a beastie as a headset which has a wireless link to a USB jobbie stuck into the phone. This would basically emulate the functionality of a DECT phone - you could walk around the house with the handset which was wirelessly connected to the PC which was connected to the outside world over broadband.
I presume bluetooth comes into the picture somewhere.
The rates for calling the UK, US, Australia and much of Europe are only 2c a minute 24 hours a day, so if you have broadband and someone living abroad it seems like a pretty good deal.
