I've had some very good quality experiences with SkypeOut, both in terms of calls I place and in terms of the one SkypeOut call I've received, which was last week. I wonder how much of it has to do with what kind of a mike you're using. Since the fidelity of a PC-to-PC call is much higher, perhaps the SkypeOut service isn't properly filtering out some residuals and harmonics or other frequencies that your mike is sending out which are inconsequential with PC-to-PC calls. Perhaps I don't know what I'm talking about. At this late hour, anything's possible. I'm not sure I'd understand this message if I read it.
