uConnect Skype Phone Converter

With the Skype Phone Converter, you can turn your regular phone into a Skype phone. You plug it into a USB port on your PC, and use the phone jack on the other end with your regular phone.

“Once hooked up, your phone will work just like it always did, but pressing the * key twice will immediately activate Skype, allowing you to natter away for nothing for hours on end. (You’ll need Broadband to get the best from uConnect and it goes without saying that your computer has to be switched on to take advantage of the VoIP function).”
