Just use Skype and your own headset or phone.

Skype. Take a deep breath

You dont need to spend that much, you just need a good headphone and microphone set available at all electrical oulets.

Thumbs up

Got tescos headset and downloaded skype, works a treat for me calling pretty much anywhere in the world. Does save money you can 'skype out' and call mobiles, landlines, etc and reduced rates over usual calls abroard or mobile rates.

Used it when in Dubai calling back to the UK, used to cost peanuts in comparison to the local telecoms provider (Eti****e).

AFAIK Skype to Skype calls are free, but you have to pay per minute if you call a landline from it.
