Yesterday Skype 2.0 hit the streets. It has a beta video calling ability, contacts grouping, status texts and a lot of smaller changes. The changes are going definitely in right direction as Skype still remains free for Skype to Skype talk. The biggest drawback of Skype for me is the memory usage - about 20MB process (with version 1.x). If You add this to Firefox usage (about 100-150MB), some service servers, typical applications etc - even 512MB is not enough for pleasant work not talking about WoW ;)
