Do I understand right, all these other options need mobile internet access, some with Java? I don't have WAP/GPRS when I'm in Mexico (nor a Java phone), so need a simple phone-only solution. 15c/min to UK/US is I think the best I can do, especially from my remote off-grid desert location there. (09 was 10c/min, when it worked). It's cheaper than a local mobile call on the IOM.
I've also used Gizmo Project on my Nokia 770 from some local wifi hotspots, calling via sip broker to relatives who are on voipfone.co.uk. Free, but I have to drive to the hotspots, and some of the internet links are via satellite so long delays.

This bit's worrying. But it seems to work so far.
