thanks for the info!!!

What kind of net speed does one have to look at to use this software. In my office i have a broadband but at home i have a wireless Tata indicom 115kbps connection. Will that be good enough??

33.3 KBPS Modem will suffice. Depending on available bandwidth, Skype will need 3 Kbps to 16 Kbps.

If you have broadband, Skype will use about 0.5 Kbps of your bandwidth continously even when it's idle. This is done to reduce network congestion and share available resources over the network. A bit like P2P filesharing or Bit Torrent where you have to give something to get something.
