R10 for 40 mins to mobile operators in SA, yes please! I've spent about R200 a month on FNBConnect since it was launched. Very happy!

I don't know why but I experience poor call quality compared to Mweb's Webcall.

You will need the following SIP settings: Username : [email protected] Password : Password selected by customer Proxy : voice.fnbconnect.co.za
taken straight off FNB Connect FAQ
I use my Nokia N900's built in SIP client with my username/password.
