There seems to be a rendering bug on the page… I suspect in the Amazon code. When the page loads the first time, it stops at the end of one of the Amazon banners. If I reload, it fixes itself. I may just yank the banners, since they don’t actually generate any cash.

Skype – Phone calls over the internet…
What is Skype?
Hello. We’re Skype and we’ve got something we want to share with you.
We’ve got a simple bit of software we want to give you. It’ll let you make free phone calls to your friends all over the world. And we don’t want any money for it. It’s free.
You could think of us as the big, free Internet telephony company. We prefer to think of ourselves as a big group hug, even a present. Yes… that’s it… we’re a present… but without the ribbon.
Our software’s quick and easy to install. Just download Skype, register, and within minutes you can plug in your headset, speakers or USB phone and call your friends. The calls have excellent sound quality and are highly secure with end-to-end encryption. You don’t even need to reconfigure your firewall or router. It just, you know… works.
(I’m going to try this out. If you are using it and would be willing to let me test it out with you, let me know… or just Skype me…)
