    I use Skype and I love it. The rates are reasonable too. This situation might be the end of Skype. If these so-called investors are greedy (and they usually are), the calling rates for Skype will no doubt rise and people will abandon Skype for something else. Sadly, this might be the beginning of the end for Skype. (my previous post didn’t “hit” for some reason).

    Have not used Skype since Gmail added voice chat. I leave Gmail open 24/7 and rarely use any local software. Skype on the iPhone looked exciting until I realized they have not added push to notifcation.
