I thought Apple's Face Time was going to make Skype go the way of the Dinosaur....I guess Maybe Microsoft will adapt Skype for their phones now?

Interesting stuff.

Skype is a great tool. Use it all the time. How do Apple expect to eliminate it with their software. Will Apples version be also free?
