Another alternative is Skype. I noticed European tourists using Skype in Internet cafes in Bali to ring friends and family in Europe. If you are ringing another Skype user on their laptop or PC, then the only cost is the hourly charge paid to the Internet Cafe.
It is more expensive to ring an overseas fixed line phone or a mobile using Skype.
