I also use it in my home office to contact clients as they are all long distance for me. In fact hubby just got a Skype phone so I can be anywhere in the house and use it, don't have to be tethered to the computer - of course computer has to be on ;-) It really is awesome!
We don't have the skype phone, but we might look into it. For now I just use computer to computer...I chat with my good friend in New Zealand with it and its awesome!
