mark was talking about Skype Pro, my understanding of this service is that many benefits and features which one would normally pay for as extras if one just downloaded Skype on its own are included at no extra charge so their's one big difference here.

But when you try to call someone else's phone is when you get charged. In fact, Skype requires you to buy credit so you can use their paid services. So let's say that you make a call to someone's mobile or a regular land line, and you have no skype credit. Skype will prompt you to buy skype credit, and if you don't, you can't make the call. As for Skype pro, I don't think that's available in the U.s. just yet so I can't speak to the features of that particular version. But again, if you have skype installed on your machine, and you contact someone else who is also using skype, it is free. I hope this helps.
