I'm sure higher quality is possible. h.263+ calls I've tried have a higher frame rate and are also encoding the audio to g729 and decoding audio and video from the other caller, all over a network, and all at under 50% cpu.

I agree. I really wish I had the time/skills to bring Peekaboo into OS2008. It would be a great app.
