How To See Your Loved Ones More Often!
May 14, 2003

Busy life, or you just live to far away from your family and friends, to be able to see them as often as you would want.

There are ways to see them more often without having to invest a lot of time in it.

Just as I am able to tell you about this through the internet, you are able to use the internet to see your loved ones more often. And I am not talking about emailing or chatting. I am talking about really seeing them,... using a broadband internet connection (min. 256Kbps) and a camera and head set.

Of course everybody heard about netmeeting and similar kinds of free software. But only the computer experts are using those kinds of software, because it is difficult to use, difficult to find the people that you want to talk with, etc. etc.

LetsVip I say. Now there is a new service available, that is easy to use, and works better than the free software.

Imagine a program on your pc that has just a few buttons, 1 to logon on, 1 for configuration, 1 to check the phonebook, 1 to add a contact, 1 to remove a contact, 1 to set up a chat, and most importantly,.. 1 to call one of your loved ones.

Just think of a phone. You can buy a phone with all kinds of fancy functions, a big LCD screen, etc.etc. But what do most people have at home? Exactly, nothing more than a simple phone that you can use to make a phone call.

LetsVip is the normal phone that everybody has at home. You can call everybody you want. And at the same time, you do not need to take a course in order to be able to use it.

The quality of the video and sound, which are synchronous, is amazing. There are virtually no noticable delays in the connection and the bandwith used is small too.

I live in Brazil, and use it to call my family in the Netherlands. It saves me a lot of money on my phone bill. But even at shorter distances you can save money already and more importantly,.. have better contact with your loved ones.

This service is new and the monthly fee is about 5 dollars (4.95 euro) No need to worry about updates and new versions. Every time you start LetsVip, the software verifies and if necessary updates your software.

Oh, did I mention already that LetsVip has an answering machine? If you want, you can leave a video message for the person you want to call, and also, you can send a video message to any email adress, even if they do not yet use LetsVip.

I myself am busy promoting LetsVip in Brazil. But luckily LetsVip is available all over the world. So if you want to know more, check the following web site? letsvip.com and please use my promotor ID for signing up: 44730

Thank you so much and good luck with using LetsVip.
