Hi Bill,
	A friend of mine has been using it on dial-up from a lap-top and
said it does work but there is a little bit more of a delay and a little
break up.

I just rebuilt a computer that will handle it, however, what about dial-up
- will it work with that? ( can connect at about 45K on a good day.
It's the ONLY option we country folks have around here.
There is no cable service, no DSL of any sort and people around here with
satellite Internet say it isn't any better than dial-up in these parts.
Will it work with that?

If so, I wonder about running it from a notebook with a wireless
connection to my dial-up network, then I could talk from any room.......
without cords at all (other than carrying around the notebook).

(not that anyone would care to listen to me....)

Bill
