Pingo is not a free service; you have to pay $12 to sign up and are immediately credited with $5 in calling time. So the net initial cost is $7. Some of the cheap rates advertised on the Pingo website include 3 cents/minute (Mexico) and 2 cents/minute (Russia).
Clark plans to try this service when he travels to Italy and Switzerland next month. He'll keep you posted!
