I've Googled for DID providers who will send calls to Skype, but all
the ones I've found only seem to offer Tel Aviv DIDs.
<br>
<br>
I don't mind if the DID provider only provides SIP or IAX, so long as
there's some other way of getting it to Skype. Unfortunately, all the
offerings I've looked at for doing so require you to run a copy of the
Linux Skype client, something I'm a bit reluctant to look at (though I
will if it's the only way to go). I did find one commercial service
doing SIP<>Skype interconnects, but their rates started at 10
lines and I only need 1.
<br>
<br>
I need to have this squared away in a couple of days. Any suggestions
at all will be most greatfully received.

Can't help you with the DID, but do note that Skype issued a beta of
Skype Asterisk integration and it is free till the end of the month. I
have no idea what the taarif would be after that.<br>
<br>
So, if you find you DID, and you run Asterisk, you can forward the SIP
channel to a Skype name at your content.<br>
<br>
Of course, Skype is evil, standard disclaimer applies, batteries not
included yada yada yada...<br>
<br>
Hope this helps,<br>
