Do I understand correctly that my SFA-to-Skype calls would be throttled down 
to 8khz even if not traversing the PSTN?

My biggest draw to SFA is 440+ million subscribers in a NAMESPACE supporting 
a WIDEBAND codec.

To some degree, I (and I'm sure other wideband disciples), feel somewhat 
like the only guy on the block with a fax machine.  Per Metcalfe's law it 
seemed that Skype (as a easily accessible namespace supporting wideband) 
could have been a shot in the arm for >8khz telephony.

I know that wideband SFA was originally on the roadmap.  Has it been 
silently deleted, or is it going to be released in some next-generation SFA?
