[Mike Hammett]

Does one pay for inbound minutes?  If not, $66 for a year...  that's $5.50/month for unlimited voice service.  I understand there are different business models, different this and different that.  However, the consumer doesn't care about business models.  $5.50 is a whole lot cheaper than my $30, no matter the other differences.

  For one I believe it is unlimited SkypeOut. If you want SkypeIn, you will need to purchase a DID @ $2.99/per month. When you add that into the mix, it is not really that great of a deal for the typical residential users.

  I don't use Skype, nor do I intend to.  However, does anyone know of any gotchas in addition to general Skype behavior of the new $30 annual unlimited plan?  How can a $25 or $30 a month unlimited plan compete with that?
