No, it's no other software. I may be queer to the USA system with the
unlimited service plans. Any Skype-to-Skype calls to my username ring my
cellphone. I have unlimited Skype in and out on the USA plans.

I have friends in AU, JP, NZ, CH, that call me that way. Two called
today.....

I do have MobiVox (www.mobivox.com) but that's only so I can call them
back....which also works great from an access number in Charlotte, NC,
the closest one to Charleston. I call the access number. It recognizes
me by my caller ID and opens it's Skype channel. It's voice-activated
for handsfree operation. Puts Skype right in my Bluetooth headset...(c;

But, MobiVox is OUTbound from the cellphone to Skype (and an even cheaper
overseas long distance for the cell, 1.9c/min). It has nothing to do
with incoming Skype In calling or Skypers calling me. It connects to
Skype-to-Skype, but uses its own landline system.
