Yes it will. This is a generic handset and the software to allow it to be used with Skype and other services like VOIPStunt can be found at the importer's website.

Check out the details here: www.yamamoto-group.co.uk

(Drivers for Skype etc are in the download section on the left hand pane of the homepage).

Yep - due to Tesco's awful software (or at least the latest patch - the phone won't work properly i.e you can't dial!) we switched to sipgate which works fine. And we got a local number.

Phone works a dream with the generic software wavejock suggested.

We bought the Tesco phone today, and couldn't get it to dial, however, a full uninstall using the add/remove program thing rather than the bundled uninstaller solved it.
