Skype works very well with Josh. There is a jaws scrips for Skype that helps you navigate in Skype. The one thing I like about Skype is the clearness of the boys. It also allows for hands-free operation. I think it may cost some money to have a Skype that will allow more than one other person on but I am not sure.
