    I know there are many dial up programs for dialing a nuber to someone else but are there any GOOD programs that do something like use your computer as a phone via the phone using the mic and speakers,or a program that can send some sort of message or text message? I have never heard of such a program but thought it would be neat and wondered if anything similar even exists.Thanks[ :D]
