Re: Skype out ?

Video conference piece? You've been listening to (and believing) Skype's never-ending (empty) hype. They have no "video conferencing piece", and they are not likely to have one anytime soon. Based on their previous track record, if and when they finally do attempt to add video conferencing it will be horribly broken, and totally dependent on some specific hardware configurations.

You would be much better served to have a look at some of the programs which already have video conferencing which works very well - ooVoo (free) and SightSpeed (subscription). They have actually been doing something that Skype only emits at lot of hot air about, for quite some time now.

Skypeout is still pretty cheap $3/month.
I let my account lapse (and disabled the skype service app).
I may pick it up again for the video conference piece.

Skype-to-Skype calls ?.. Up no doubt. Skype out ?.. down, I'm sure after raising prices. I bailed, to many alternatives.

If only the Verizon CSRs worked this well.
