In your June issue, you tell us how to make free phone calls from an iPod Touch. The trick is to add the iPhone headset with microphone.

I have a Blackberry 8320 with headset and microphone. I tried it on my iTouch (Gen 2) and it works.

I called Skype's "Echo/Sound test line" and it played back my "test, test, test"

So, if you own a Blackberry phone, your headset will work on the iTouch.

mmmmmm .... Interesting.

I should ditch my phone, so I can buy an IPod Touch to make free phone calls.

Let me think about this logic.

Thinking .... Thinking ... Thinking .....

As long as you are in range of a WiFi network that you can use...

@smax

I know.

My phone will work with or without WiFi.

Since I have over 4,000 roll over minutes from AT&T.

I think all my phone calls are at no additional charges.

Here is my logic.

Unless I ditch my phone, stop paying my cell phone bills.

I really don't see any benefit use iPod Touch to make phone calls.

Because, I still have to pay my cell phone bill regardless use iPod Touch or not. ]:)
