A good friend of mine has just left Australia for 6 months to live in Switzerland and work as part of an exchange program...

Are there any phone companies in Switzerland that allow ppl to have a land line for 6 months connected??

Can anybody give me advice on the best companies that have the best deals for foreigners? i.e. broadband internet and long distance international calls?

I can call Switzerland for 2 hours @ $2.50AU... which is very cheap here... is there anything like that over there?
