Sure, there are alternatives, but the problem with them is that they aren't that wide-spread like Skype. It's the same problem from which Jabber suffers :(. Superior technology, but not spread enough. For WengoPhone, I might be wrong, but IIRC, it only supports ALSA. At least, it showed no available audio device on my Linux system with OSS4.1. It's really a huge pain in the ass that more and more apps only support ALSA :( -- Jonathan
