This is precisely what ginapeterb of Filipino UK has been doing, calling her best friend based in Bacolod City, Western Visayas, Philippines, whilst traveling down the A13 (as a passenger of course) in Essex near Canvey Island. In light of this globe spanning communication she was quick to spot the possibilities, stating “The call quality was superb, and I think this phone is a great buy for someone who wants to keep in touch regularly with their Filipino relatives, or their Girlfriend, Wife, Fiancee, etc, or even relatives which is what we use the phone for.”

Obviously the no cost calls, which the thread in Filipino UK goes on to discuss, is a major factor in the Skype revolution, which potentially will shrink the globe as communication becomes free and easy. Indeed, ginapeterb’s 3 Skypephone activity is an example of 3 Skypephone communication occurring at a micro level.
