Back to School with Skype

About to head off to college or university? Take a couple of Skype phones with you, courtesy of high street computer-flogger PC World. Their special £599.99 student package also includes a laptop and printer, though we imagine the average student will be too busy chatting to notice.
It's a masterstroke by PC World to include the Skype phones in the package. Parents will want their undergrad offspring to keep in touch, but those undergrad offspring will prefer to spend their Student Loan cash on books and beer than on expensive phone calls home. With Skype at their joint-stained fingertips, the students can phone Mum without it costing a bean. (Baked or otherwise.)
