Wanted to pass on another calling card option. I use Net2Phone's Direct. 
Prepaid calling card(requires initial $20 to account). They charge 4.9 cents 
per minute in most metropolitan areas and 7.9 cents per minute 
elsewhere(using 800 number). I've been using mine for about three months now. 
I'm pleased with their service. Sounds the same as a regular call.

Another option that hasn't been discussed on this thread is the use of a 
virtual office service. They provide a secretary who answers your phone 
(live) and then sends your messages via email, page, or you may call in to 
receive. Also helpful if you will be working on the road as a business 
address. For those of us who will not be maintaining a home base and who have 
non-computer folks in our lives, this may help. Below are links to three 
companies:

COHQ -- complete virtual office solution, including address

Regus -- virtual office services

Call My Office -- your own toll free number, $28/mo plus $20 startup fee 
includes 45 (40 sec) calls incl long distance charges.
