Cuz if u wanna use Skype to call to a phone, then u gotta pay. Rates are kinda high. So eventually ure better of with Magic Jack. if both sides got a computer then yes Skype to Skype works.
Skype rates to call Nepal = 11c/min
Rebtel rates = 16c/min
Google voice = 19c/min
And if ure the one who wants to be on recieving end, you need another skype subscription. rebtel and gv allow people to call u for free, but then u have US based numbers, the person who is calling will have to make an int'l call. And the hassle of explaining everything to a layman non-techie is going to make for quite an operetta.
Instead just buy the Magic Jack, give it to them, they plug it into their comp and a cordless phone into the MJ and voila, they now have a US number so they can call anyone as if it were a local call. The only problem here is your internet connection has to be stable and decent.
Or use messenger pigeons :)
