Di Member Registered: 11/15/05 Posts: 2798 Loc: NM, transplant from NJ	My SD wants her Dad and I to get a camera so we can all connect to Skype. Mainly to see the babies, but there is nothing like real visits and hugs! Anyone use it? How's it going? DH wants to wait a while until they work out all the bugs. _________________________ Southwest Body Gear here ~ NEWLY updated website with many new products!

I even took them on a tour of the house, see the trees change color in the fall, and the flowers in spring, showed them my dog and a nest of baby bunnies in the yard. It's fun. What bugs to work out? It's free, it's simple. _________________________ http://dcvance.wordpress.com/

How nice! My sister uses Skype as well as her son is in school in Orlando and it keeps them connected visually. She loves it. Again, I'm not sure what bugs hubby is referring to, but then again, I don't use it. I've just heard her talk about how much she loves it. _________________________ Queen JJ www.queenjawjaw.com All Things Royal - 2010 and Beyond Humorist for the NABBW

Saundra Member Registered: 11/18/05 Posts: 1796 Loc: Daytona Beach, Florida	I just began using Skype to talk to a friend in another state. I bought my mic at Walmart for under $10. No webcam yet, but I use the mic in the online class I'm taking since I cut my long distance. It's great. _________________________ What I know for sure is that it's all connected.

orchid Registered: 01/21/07 Posts: 3675 Loc: British Columbia, Canada	We use Skype when he is cycling for a few weeks/months on the road. Of course, he is cycling with his laptop but he doesn't mind since he uses it to download many photos from his camera, email, etc. For past 2 years. Our problem has nothing to do with Skype itself, but something we haven't figured out with my microphone. So we see each other...for now. Of course, we plan to use it when he'll be cycling again for a few weeks in Europe later this spring.
