Sure the Skype Video calling does work (under "ideal circumstances"):

-My N900 on Wifi and my windows desktop have an open video call for more than an hour and a half now. Slow and lousy video but stable nevertheless.
(As a matter of trying to crash PR 1.2 I am stressing it a little bit with Skype videocall - it takes almost 100 procent CPU.
Also the graphic display is showing artefacts (whit snow pixels on black area's) after an hour of full stress. This might be due to the graphic driver. I have noticed the graphic performance to be very quick since PR 1.2. Hehe maybe this PR 1.2 freezes the point where they had to experiment with over-clocking the graphic chip

-Videocalling to OSX Snow Leopard based Skype is not possible with my setup (video does not come up on Mac PC nor does it on N900

-To enable video in Skype calls: not always you have a video call option readily available next to an online skype contact, but you sure can select the video enable from the Skype menu on the N900 as soon as the voice call is established
-During the Skype videocall incoming GSM calls will receive an occupied tone and the N900 displays a message "missed call".
