For noisy speech it's not at all bad. For data modes - write your own seems
to be the best option, this is what I plan to do for DM780 sometime. Sending
data around at 8kHz with (estimated) 25% overhead is not a big problem, it's
a trivial programming task, just takes some time to design and the implement
it properly.

SKYPE uses a proprietary voice only codec. Being proprietary means that
its exact limitations will be unknown, but it is unlikely to perform well
for data modes when operating close to the noise floor and it may well not
work well for very noisy speech.
