Hi Kathy. I have tried a new VoIP client called Skype, which is a
commercial but free client/service. I encourage you to take a look at
it...I haven't had occasion to use it with any assistive technology yet,
but I have used it as a standard client, and the call quality is
outstanding.

Take a look at

http://www.skype.com/

And if you do have any success integrating it with AT, I'm sure we'd all
love to hear about it!
