Oh, if you decide to use Skype be aware that only 2 can use video.  if
you have more than 2 people then only audio is available.

i routinely have friends in Australia, Texas, Georgia, and Kentucky, all
Skyping in for our weekly "game night".  call quality is very good and
rarely do we have issues with lagging/clipping.
