Skype drops its BETA, Goes straight to version 4

Highlights from the Skype blog post released yesterday:

• Four major changes in this release:
• We have a new Conversations View where users can easily track all of their chats in a unified window.
• Those users who prefer the old view can disable this in the Chat options;
• We have a brand new Call View.
• Call quality has never been better thanks to several investments we made in improving audio quality.
• We've worked on improving video call quality and have also extended support for more cameras.

• Improved chat synchronization.
• New presence and emoticon icons.
• The ability to store and view phone numbers in a Skype contact's profile.
• Much lower chance Skype for Linux will crash or freeze.
• Chat history loading is now much faster.
• Support for two new languages: Czech (flag:cz) and Norwegian (flag:no).
