    Calling Sky from abroad

    I have a UK mobile but I will only use this as a last resort since at 60p/min it's too expensive. I can call from a fixed line to the UK for 1 cent/min. Let's hope the commission finally forces mobile operators to reduce their roaming charges. I read some people successfully used Skype. Can...
