Can i really call Europe from Usa though wi-fi using the "fring" app? What about true phone"? Is there any way to make free international calls?

Before you do anything with fring, I'll advise you to read carefully on their website: fring (http://www.fring.com)

fring are using data - which mean you'll need a data plan with your carrier. 1 minute of talk is about 133KB (8MB per hour).

Great - then you're ready. Just remember to use 3G or even better - WiFi if you got one!? Clean connection is about 133KB per minute, and sometimes EDGE it's fine....but...

I don't use fring myself, but download a guide here: fring guide (http://www.fring.com/support/index.php?_m=downloads&_a=view)

It sais that if i want to call a land line i need to purchase some Skipe out/sip credits... Which is fine i guess, but i dont know where to get those. And im wondering if i can even make calls to a mobile phone.
