Also, with regards to the comment about cruise ships: I'm not surprised Skype didn't work well. Those ships typically use a low-bandwidth sat-based system for their Internet access. Might be OK for checking E-mail, but even that is probably going to be frustratingly slow. For what they charge for it, it's just not worth it. They also charge exorbitant amounts for using a cell phone as well... Like $6/minute for the roaming fees on some cruise lines.... No thanks.
