i do not understand the advantage of the tool: you need to call to the computer with your mobile in order to be able to call a person. so you do need to pay a connection after all. when someone wants to reach you on your skype number, you need call forwarding for which you need to pay again...

To me, the advantage is that I can use my cell phone in the US to call family and friends in Europe for 2 cents a minute instead of the 7 cents ATT used to charge me.
I can also use it from home or from my in-laws to call using a regular phone instead of having to bring my laptop and headsets around with me.

Oh yes, this sounds REALLY useful. Americans might think it's not that much of a difference calling for free or for 2 cents a minute, but European calling rates remain high and in other parts of the world... well, let's just say that the difference between calling via such a gateway and calling direct from your mobile is in the region of over 50 cents a minute. Interesting, eh?

From the point of view of saving money I must agree with the first comment. Using this with a mobile is not bargain as you will be paying the per minute charge that your plan requires. As a substitue for at home phone service, however, it seems to have some value.
