Did Skype completely replace Messenger in WP 8.1? Being able to switch between Messenger and text in one thread was really convenient. I just upgraded to 8.1 DP and that option is gone. Kinda seems like another case of MS taking something that worked well and overhauling it.

A lot of integration was lost in 8.1 but then it opened the phone for 3rd party integration a lot more...

I love skype and its disappointing that they do seem to avoid using it when we have saw the success of facetime/imessage on iphone/ipad/mac when mac has a minute market share compared to windows

The unfortunate thing is that loading Skype takes a lot longer (on my admittedly slow L521) to load than just switching from Messenger to text. It makes it much less convenient to open it up to send one message.
