I think that we should outlaw the use of Skype and equivalent, and strongly discourage mobile phones unless absolutely necessary.
If people want to Skype to the US 800 access number, which is free and requires no Skype credit, that's probably better than a callout. At least if they drop off, they can call back themselves.
