Unfortunately I only have questions - no answers:
Does it happen all the time (always for all contacts) or just in some cases (slow connection? after reboot? after very long w/o reboot? on wifi? using cellular? for contacts that were offline? ... )? Before you start the call does mycontact show the contact as online? does it get any better if you shutdown mycontacts and start again?

I have experienced one issue with mycontacts/skype once but I was trying to start a chat session. I couldn't find any reason for it to fail to send the text and it went away by itself by just restarting the app....

Let me know if you can find any more information....

Thanks,
Felipe
1. Happens consistently ONLY with skype calls.
2. Happens immediately after reboot as well as after 2 days of usage
3. I've tried only on wifi, haven't tried on 3g
4. Always confirmed that the contact was online - target contact tested in same wifi network as me as well as on a different wifi network.
5. If I try normal contacts skype call then MyContacts skype call then normal contacts skype works but MyContacts skype call doesn't work.
6. Just tested on an offline contact. MyContact call fails with the same error "Unable to establish connection", but with the normal contacts, after about 15-20 seconds gives error banner "Unable to call: Contact offline"
