One problem w/ skype - I tried calling vanguard with it, and I couldn't enter my SS number using the keypad using the numeric tones. Is that something I'm doing wrong or what? Can you skyper's use the automated directories when you call businesses with skype? I mean "press 1 for english, omprime 2 por espanol" kind of things. Otherwise it sounded great when I was testing it.

Click "call phones", dial the number. Near the top of the call window you will see a place where you can adjust the microphone volume. To the right of that you should see a small arrow pointing downwards. Click on it and choose "display dial pad" (sometimes it shows up automatically when you call a 800 number). You can now navigate through the directory. Works for me.
