Depends on what you mean by a 'sane user'. Such a user might want to use a product which (a) is capable of communicating with the rest of the VOIP world, (b) doesn't tie you to a particular communications provider, (c) supports standard protocols, (d) is not closed and proprietary, (e) is free. Skype might be very good technically but it doesn't fulfill any of these criteria whereas SIP based software and hardware is available which does.
