Not sure why I would want to connect an adapter and a PSTN phone to my computer when I can simply connect a headset? I use sipgate in Europe for my calls (using X-Lite) and they support caller ID and have free local numbers in Germany, Austria and the UK.

But only for one year, right? Aren't there several SIP offers that give free calls.
I'm not really convinced... I prefer a nice SIP solution that works on my IP phone at home, as well as working as a softphone when I'm on the road.
