It was so cheap for unlimited dial out that I have forgotten
the price!  :)

> 2. Quality any good?

Yes.  I had a lot of trouble trying to call a cell phone in
Taiwan from Skype here in ATL, but I must admit I
thought that might not work.  ;)

> 3. Any gotchas?

I found that it matters what version of the Linux software
I used.  I was having trouble of some sort, but an upgrade
fixed it.
