Not to argue -- but it depends on the goal.  If the goal is to connect 
remotely with another person, then GW Connect makes sense.  If the goal 
is to teach Skype, then Skype is the choice.  Doug Lee has scripts that 
are good, don't remember address but if you google Doug Lee Skype JAWS 
scripts it should come up.
