Skype is a great VoIP software, no doubt about that, but sometimes it is pretty limited when it comes to coverage as you're always limited by the range and
connectivity of a WiFi hotspot. Vonage has a solution for those who hit the road often in the form of the USB phone. Despite being able to order it for quite some time, Vonage is beginning to ship this product at the moment. It does not work like a traditional phone as it comes in a USB dongle that would remind you of a thumb drive. Inside the USB dongle comes Vonage Talk software and a pre-loaded contact list. All you need to do is to plug in the headset that comes with the package, use the computer to dial your preferred number and start yakking away. The PC is used as an interface more than anything else. This USB phone from Vonage comes with its very own number, and costs less than $40 which makes it a very tempting proposition for frequent travelers.Pros : Affordable communications solution
Cons : Has own number which you cannot choose
