I've used the yahoo voice call, what it is really is glorified voice chat. As stated here, you have to use microphones and can only call from computer to computer. The quality was ok for the most part, and your messanger will answer computer calls just like voice mail when you are not available. It is completely free, but I wasn't all that impressed. If you talk accidentilly at the same time as your partner, you don't hear anything at all. After being on a "call" for any length of time, the sound quality deteriorated, and we ended up sounding like Mickey Mouse. Though it was ok to mess around with a little, I don't think it's the most reliable. I also recently noticed I will have "voicemail" on there for weeks that I was never notified of.
