Don't know if they still aren't, but it seems that on Friday SkyPE were having massive problems routing calls via their SkyPEin service..

Now, this makes me wonder if they are actually ready for large scale use. AFAIK, none of the major non-voip telecoms providers (BT, NTL etc) have ever had an outage that prevents most of their customers recieving incoming calls, and if they did, there would be outrage.
