Good reason for me not to upgrade anyway...

Well, I know with my Mac client, I can't participate in multi-party video conferences. The Windows users get a message about one of the participants having too old a version. It's the one I DL'ed from Skype just last week!

The new interface isn't the worst. I can live with that.

The quality of video calls is terrible. Fiance and I do skype video minimum of once a week. We have to hang up and call back several times in just 1 hour because the quality is bad.

Just this past monday. Three dropped calls and 2 callbacks in 1 hour time frame.

Before 4.0, 1 dropped call a MONTH.

I had this problem with the beta so I went back to the old version. I had no idea that they wouldn't even admit that there is a problem!

and before anyone asks I have 2 laptops and a high end desktop and they all have these issues.
