Headset instead of a headache:

An internet phone isn't a physical device like a regular telephone. The phone pad itself exists on the computer, which is why some call it a soft phone. Most computers are equipped with internal microphones. So you can literally talk to your friends by speaking into the computer screen. Though, this might be cool for the first 5 minutes, you'll probably start to miss the mobility of your cordless. Of course an easy fix to this is a wireless headset. So you're not only screen free, but hands free as well.
