I've used the video calling on both wi-fi and 3g and I'm told the quality is
very good. It did start to break up after a few minutes on 3g though,
however, it was cool to show my family how cold it is in Minnesota.

Skype 3.0 for iPhone - with video calling
Posted: 29 Dec 2010 11:02 PM PST
Happy Holidays season - hohoho.
This season is very special as we are releasing a new version of
Skype for iPhone and iPod Touch with video calling. Now you will be able
to share all the special moments in video, as they happen, wherever you
are.
Download the app straight from iTunes and let us know what you think
about it on our forums.
Skype video calling is supported over WiFi and 3G* data connections.
You can enjoy video calls with users on all Skype desktop versions and
with other Skype for iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad users.
You can make video calls in both portrait and landscape mode and use
both front and back cameras.
Users on iPhone 4, 3GS and iPod Touch (4th Generation) can enjoy full
2-way video calling. Users with iPod Touch (3rd Generation) and iPads can
receive video.
Video calling with Skype requires iOS 4.0 or above to be installed on
your device. Skype 3.0 for iPhone will also work on iOs 3.x, but without
video support.
Full release notes for Skype 3.0.0 for iPhone:
New Features:
* Video calling
Known issues:
Category Description Workaround
Video calling When receiving a video call on iPhone from Skype
2.8 for Mac user, the only options presented to the iPhone user are Accept
and Decline. The incoming call will appear as an audio-only call. \\
Once the call is established, the iPhone user can click "Video call" to
start video.
Calling iPhone 3G running iOS 3.1.2 will briefly go offline
after the other person ends a Skype call. Online status is automatically
restored after a brief period.
Calling When an iPhone (iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 4th
Gen) calls a device without a camera, the audio is routed through the
loudspeaker. However, the speaker button is not highlighted. Toggle the
Speaker button.
Video calling If you place a Skype call on hold while using
the back camera, resuming the call will switch to the front camera. Press
the camera button to select back camera.
Video calling Starting video while on hold during a Skype call
causes the call to fail (cannot resume from hold). Take the Skype call
off hold before starting video.
Calling Ringing sound plays through the earpiece instead of
the loudspeaker after call has been answered the first time. Restart
Skype application.
Calling Skype running on iPhone 3GS with iOS 4.2 does not
automatically place a Skype call on hold when an incoming GSM call is
received. None available.
Calling When declining an incoming GSM call, the Skype call
audio is lost. Place the Skype call on hold and un-hold, to return the
Skype call audio.
