Asd one of the more vocal critics of skypeout I can wholeheartedly confirm that the newest version of skype works much better axim to pc and finally works axim to phone. I can't hear what the quality is like on the other end but I was told that it was not as good as a cell phone but functional. I will have to do a skypeout vs stanaphone shootout this weekend.
Axim to pc is still not full duplex if you start talking by saying " ahhhhhhhhhhhh" the other person can talk and you won't hear anything so it's somewhat like the the nextel walkie talkie thing but it is still functional. I also think that one of the bigger problems, latency, has been fixed in this version.
Whatever the result its good to know that it finally works.
