For the record I just started on Skype myself. The present
minimum cost to most Western countries is AU$0.059
connection and AU$0.027 per minute or part thereof.

However, there are some expensive exceptions. The price to
mobile phones is much higher and can be dearer than landline
phones, depending on your home-phone plan, and certain
countries are very expensive.
