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.
