Anyone know if skype phones will accept more than one account simultaneously?

I can persuade windows to run two instances of Skype if I want/need to be logged into both my accounts, but it's one of the factors hindering my desire to go landline-less.

(I'm looking at the unlimited national calls for 3.95 Euros a month including skype-in number and comparing this to the $36/month my landline costs me, and drooling. Since TelstraClear hasn't been forthcoming with VOIP packages for the residential customer on their cable network (no money in it for them I guess) it's time to seriously look elsewhere.)

The critical flaw in the "technology will mean we have to work less" predictions which have been with use since at least the early 20th century is an unwritten assumption that employers will be happy to pay an equivalent amount of people an equivalent amount of money for less time spent at work.

In practice this requires everybody people shifting to better paying jobs with fewer hours - and a serious culture change around the whole concept of employment.
