Do yourself a favour - open up an Excel sheet and work out the costs. Look
at pre-pay providers [like Sipgate], post-pay [Gradwell], part-inclusive
[voip.co.uk] and all-inclusive providers [Vonage]. Look at where your calls
are going [01/02/07/08/09/00], how long they are and when you make them.

For example:

- If you're always making calls to/from 0049, maybe you would be better off
signing up with a VoIP provider in Germany

- Vonage looks promising because you're always making loads of peak time
geographic calls, but digging a little deeper you realise that most of them
are to the same place that could easily be converted to VoIP, and would be
free on-net with another VoIP provider

- Most of your calls are to mobiles, so buying a mobile would be more
cost-effective

If you buy the right kit, you can sign up with several providers and program
it to take the cheapest route. There's a lot of competition out there in
VoIP-land for your money, so you're bound to find something that satisfies.
