Yes, skype works quite well in fact. For me it has been much more reliable than either Gizmo or Google talk. For that reason, if I'm making a call to someone like a customer, I use Skype. I'm starting to get more comfortable with just using it without any kind of headset in a speaker phone mode. The built in microphone works great for this and you can hear people fine. Skype does work to pick up third party voicemail but most of the time ( I'm a T-mobile customer) I have to press the prompt numbers like my password number more than once for the system to get it right. The only other problem I've had with Skype is a delay experienced by the person I'm calling, but this isn't always a problem. The fact that Skype works so well during a call far outweighs any of it's glitches for me.
