* bugfix: Skypecasts incorrect number of participants showed
* bugfix: Skypecasts buttons are out of align for host
* bugfix: Rare error when joining conf call and 1:1 call simultaneously
* bugfix: Closing chat with non-authorized contact results an error message
* bugfix: Cancelling file transfer causes crash
* bugfix: File Transfer notification not formatted correctly
* bugfix: Sound Setting Widget: Mic indicator shouldn't move, if microphone is muted
* bugfix: Sound Setting Widget layout design is messed up due to resize under Vista

I left this comment on the post of the last hotfix. Nobody has answered me.

"The app still crashed on SMS verification. Any word on a new fix?"

Plenty of people are still having this problem. Care to answer your customers?!?

How come "Check for Update" refused to find this new 205 version? I was on 198 and had to download 205 directly. It seems the update facility is flakey.

And while on that subject, how come anyone on Skype 2.5 doesn't get offered to upgrade to 3.0 when check updates?

Is it coming as an automatic update to 300190 later? Check updates says I have the latest and as it happens today was the day when I was looking to solve some Skype related problems :)
In the forum, it would be a good idea to put a date on the announcement, when posted, not only when it expires.
In general, it would be nice if we didn´t have to re-sign in on every page we are visiting on the skype domain; like when we go from the forum to here.
Thank you.

I'm in USA and my friend in Vietnam. Everytime, we chat its dropped all the time. Sometimes, stay for about an hour. Most of time, dropped withins 10 min. Please let me know why. Thanks for the help.

I have the same issue as Thaits. My Skype-Out calls to Jamaica droped once in 24 minutes. There was also a slight overlap in the conversation. Didn't seem to be true full-duplex. My DL/UL to Cayman (closet speed test to Jamaica) was 2.7Mb/491kb

When you have call drops then please report them to Customer Support.

"The app still crashed on SMS verification. Any word on a new fix?"

This was fixed in 3.0.0.198.

Everytime I try to make a call to Jamaica I see a message that it is an invalid numner. It is not an invalid number. What's up with that? Is it just me or is this skype thing just bogus? I use the area code and the correct phone number.
