Actiontec Internet Phone Wizard  The Actiontec Internet Phone Wizard works in combination with Skype's excellent VoIP software, letting you make free Internet telephone calls to other Skype users through an analog phone--and it allows you to place regular landline calls, too.  The Internet Phone Wizard is slightly larger than a standard deck of cards. The back edge includes a USB 2.0 port for connecting the device to your computer, plus two RJ-11 jacks for plugging it into your analog phone and, if you also want to use that phone for plain old telephone calls, the phone jack in your wall.  The Internet Phone Wizard also offers several  features that make using it a pleasure. Although  its $79 price is a bit high, CNET recommends the Internet Phone Wizard to anyone with broadband connection who wants to use Skype using a headset. 8:41:31 PM    comment []
