A bit off topic: for the past few months I've been using voipfone.co.uk as my primary landline phone (via a cable modem), excellent quality and good access to UK non-geographic numbers. I use it via a Sipura VOIP adaptor, so I've set a dial plan, and here in the US I can pick up the phone and dial Isle of Man numbers as local (the price is close to local also), dial UK numbers as in the UK, US numbers as in the US, etc. The days of POTS phones are numbered.

... and I'm wondering about Skype call diversion too ...
I've also been using that, as my "find me" number (my home Isle of Man number is on call-divert to the Skype number). One US number on Skype-in, rings three outgoing numbers at the same time. However, they don't support some numbers, e.g. the 09 Iceland number range can't be reached from Skype (nor UK 056 VOIP numbers yet).
