Answer 2

Speex is open source, optimized for speech and seems to have lower bandwidth requirements. However, in Flash/AIR, Speex is always 16 kHz, which is not quite the Skype-like crispness of the sound. Because of that, we're currently contemplating switching to the "old" Nellymoser where we have an option of 22 and even 44 kHz.
