Skype freeware phone software fow Windows 2K or XP

Works great just install and add friends like any other IM program but this sound instead of text.

Try it out and give me a ring :)

I´ve been trying it out with some friends over the last 2 weeks with decidedly mixed results.
A few times it worked great but most of the time we had horrible lags making a meaningful conversation all but impossible. I understand that it uses a p2p system, so i figure the problems are a result of it not being spread wide enough yet. Especialy in germany where there was hardly any publicity on it. Seems to be improving though, it went from on average 40k users online to 120k in those two weeks. We´ll see how it develops.

The idea is great of course. My nick is sebastian666 so give me a ring if you want to try it out. Didn´t try connecting to anyone outside berlin yet.
