Mobivox is an interesting concept- but it's a bit awkward being both a Skype
gateway for POTS-to-Skype calls and a separate international LD service.
(It'd be nice if they let you dial int'l LD through your Skype account using
it's balance, but then, of course, there'd be nothing in it for them!)
The strength of Voicestick, IMO, is, like OneSuite, it's an all-in-one
solution. It's a SIP-compliant VoIP account, a forwarding service, and an
international calling card all in one account. Theoretically, with Mobivox,
you need to have x dollars in your Skype account for international LD at
home, and x dollars in your Mobivox account for international LD on the
road. Not a huge deal, but it's more to keep track of.
