Yes, we use it with the webcam to visit our daughter, son-in-law and grandson in NC. We're in CA. I was worried our little grandson wouldn't know me when I got back there to visit, so we started using it. He recognizes us when we get on, throwing kisses and waving (he's 19 months). I am very happy with the quality of the picture and sound. It needs a good connection, though, so it needs to be DSL or other fast connection.

Does it cost anything for skyping? How do you sign up for skyping?

It is free to use skype with a mic and webcam if desired to communicate computer to computer. It is free computer to computer. If you desire to use computer to cell or landline, it is about $4 monthly basically unlimited (10,000 minutes monthlyy). You just go to the skype website and you can find out anything you want to know. If I can do it, anyone can! good luck.

Hi Andrea, how are you feeling these days? Great, I hope. Hadn't heard from you in awhile and was wondering how you and baby boy are doing? You know I have a vested interest in you two!!! lol Hope your delivery is fast and easy. I'm not on the board every day, so may have missed some of your posts, but I did go to your blog and catch up! Take care your both yourselves!! How much longer do you have? Please send me your address again...don't know what I've done with it. Thanks, Woodie (Dorothy of Kansas, now in Oklahoma!)
