Can I use it to make phone calls with skype, directly, no click no screen?

It is extremely hard to tell from a photo what the equipment type is, however if it was designed for USB use, it will probably work. I have the Philips phone sold by Skype that has its own base unit and that works without having to have a computer powered up.

I know my answer wasn't definitive but without more data that's as good as I get. :0)
