As it stands, Skype 1.4 isn't worth bothering with anyway. The interface
does indeed look a lot better, but the old issues with the sound devices
have cropped up and some common options (such as automatically setting
to away when you're absent after so many minutes) have been inexplicably
blended out. 

As someone else said, it's a beta, but it is to date one of the worst
versions of Skype released for Linux. My advice would be to stick with
1.3. It does the same thing and 1.4 doesn't have any new features worth
screaming about.
