I strongly agree with that. The only benefit to Skype are free (international) calls via skype2skype. The landline access is simply a red herring, thanks to the awesome, and OPEN, Gizmo Project. Video calling would have been the killer app here, and I have strong doubts that will be coming anytime soon. This begs the question, why is the camera so poorly supported? I can't believe there are hardly any apps that use it at all.

The other disappointing aspect of the N800 VoIP hype is that we still can't use a bluetooth headset with the device. I've had this ability for years on my far-less-advanced cellphones. I don't even need A2DP, just a mono audio connection would suffice!
