I do not like using my mobile phone to make calls, not when I get free txts at least. In fact, let me rephrase that - I do like making calls rather than sending txts, the reason I don’t most of the time is often due to the high cost of mobile calls.
I have heard of a great invention by the name of voice-over IP. Apparently through software applications, such as Skype, can make cheap to free calls anywhere in the world.
I have heard some people referring to it as ‘VOIP’, pronouncing it phonetically, but I think that just sounds silly.
Unfortunately it also needs some hardware in the form of a microphone, or a headset, which seems to be the more popular, and more practical method. However, I have a problem with these headsets. Each one I have tried I haven’t liked for one reason or another. Generally the problem is related to the sound not being great for the person on the other end, or it is uncomfortable.
I did once spend €10 crediting my account only to have most of it taken from me as it wasnt used within six months. My problem right now is that I do not have access to a landline telephone - except in work and when I go to the parents house on a Sunday. Neither of these, however, can be abused.
Conclusion: Get a headset!
Granted I don’t spend a considerable amount topping up my phone each month, helped by the fact that my txts are free, but I like talking to friends and want to have the ability to do so, without paying a lot of money.
Not being sure where to start, I’d love to hear what headset you use and what you think of it compared with others.
