Skype saved our butts - alot. It meant no long distance phone bills, and we could actually see each other. It meant we could "spend time together" while we were both doing homework. It meant we could have the advantage of seeing body language which helped with some communication things. I'd come home from work, Skype him and turn on the video feed. We both had headsets and we'd just go about doing what we needed to do.

Your LDR stats are very close to mine and my wifes. I just gotta say so, the Skype thing... MAN that so rocks! My kids use it for fun. Never thought about it in a LDR application.

Skype is a great tool for LDR's.
