Awesome. Thanks.
Shot in the dark here. Do they make anything that will work with apples FaceTime?
i doubt it. Not too sure about that. But for video chatting, you can also try Oovoo and Gtalk.
Skype works for calls, but i can't get video to work. On Skype forums, other tablet users complain of the same.
Skype works 100% for me.
I video called with my girlfriend for about 2h.
Went really nice, but crashed once.
You can even switch between front and back camera. But this is a bit buggy.

Skype with video works fine, although outgoing video quality is mediocre at best (this applies to all android tablet/phones, it's skype's fault)

I called my parents while I was on vacation (and will be calling them and other friends via my tablet while away at school), and it seemed to work pretty well. I think I looked better to my parents than they did to me, not sure if it's the phone or just the wifi at home (I came home to some pretty poor speeds and had to fiddle with the router a little). I had issues with my parents not coming through to me, but they can see me. I originally blamed it on my custom ROM on my phone, but then it happened on my PC and tablet...so I'm going to have to look at her phone to see what's happening. She has no idea how to use it, as I wasn't home when she received it. Took one look at it when I got home, and noticed that the homescreens were a mess, the dock had a bunch of strange Verizon apps on it, etc. So I'm going to blame her phone for now.
I've called almost every night to family. I have only noticed occasional camera glitches that lasted only moments.

It's works, but last 2 days with problem. About after 1 hour on line when Skype not used, it go off line itself. After you open again, it necessary to put user name and password again or only password. Anybody have the same problem????

Works just fine. video 8/10 audio 9/10
I prefer Google+ Hangouts because I can have video with more than 1 users.

Used skype yesterday for 4 hours to remote someone in for a ffl draft. Medium quality. Sapped battery almost completely. Crashed twice. But when it worked it did good enough
skype mod
I recommend downloading this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25703019&postcount=2223
(better skype mod)

(better skype mod)When it works it works for hours. In balanced mode it is sometimes unbelievable how low the drain is.
But sometimes it will just not work, no video.
But hard to tell if it is the app, the server or my partner that is the reason for it.

Not too long ago it got updated. I haven't experienced any problems since so hopefully it stays like that.
I use it from work (real slow connection) to skype with my wife at home. Have never had any issues to speak of.
