Just got Skype

I use Skype as my primary phone. For $6 a month, you can't beat it. I have a GE 2-in-1 phone with built-in Skype firmware.

Nope. oovoo = resource hog.

I just downloaded oovoo.

I can't figure out if the developers are being paid off, or if they're just dense.

You need a dual core CPU to do high resolution (640x480) WTH? It is also using a ridiculously unacceptable amount of CPU in standard resolution right now.

And it's noise cancellation sucks too.
 
I just use my laptop webcam though I've never actually used my webcam on skype before

It's still free if both persons use Skype, but for 2 cents a minute Asia to N America, I can't't complain.

The only excuse for that would be that it's using some kind of insane compression scheme.

I don't know if it is their setup or not, but the calls I've gotten from Bangkok over Skype have horrible VQ.
