Does anyone have any experience using Skype from their own personal laptop on Voayger while outside the US to connect to laptops in the U.S.?

I am wondering if the slow satellite connection speeds severely affect the the service? Or if the ship's Internet system would block useage?

Before heading out on the World Cruise, I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has experience trying to get this to work.

For those who are not aware, Skype is a free Internet voice communications service when talking from computer to compture. With the correct equipment (Web cam) you can also send video. You can also conduct conference calls.

In the U.S., you can call free from a computer to any phone or wireless phone in the U.S. Next year this becomes a paid service ($14.95/yr if you sign up before the Jan. 31; $29.95 after).

Thanks,
