Well, the best laid plans have been short stopped. It seems that Skype 2.8 for the Mac and the newest, and smallest, Mac Book Airs are not getting along.
Beyond the online Skype Developer report, I've experienced it first hand. Apple's support was very receptive, and even while Skype is third party software, the apple Senior Support person was extremely interested, spending almost an hour with me as we gathered all kinds of information from the new Air and an older Air where Skype is working fine, under the exact same version of both the Mac OS and the Skype version.
Found a work around. Not ideal, but it works for now.

I had the same issue last night, haven't called Apple support yet but I would be interested to see what they say. Glad to know I'm not the only one.
