That seems like a good deal. Is the handset USB? I would assume so. Plus with the free calls it helps reduce the upfront cost.

Has anyone tried this out? Also what is the handset they give out?

Yes the handset is USB. It does seem like a good deal, but some other services actually do not have a sign-up. I think Skype has handsets you can get for around 30 euros, so it would actually be cheaper.

IPSpeak

IPSpeak is a VoIP provider who offers what they label an "integrated" VOIP package. For £50, buyers get a VoIP handset that plugs into a PC or laptop, the necessary software to get it up and running, and ten dollars worth of call time. They can then use the service to call any landline or mobile number worldwide, or to make free calls to any other IPspeak customer.

A call to a UK or a US line will cost a customer 2.2p per minute, compared to 3.9p per minute to Australia, 8.4p per minute to Russia and 26p per minute to India.
