Skype on the Apple Ipod Touch

I have had the skype program on my computer for a few years. I didn't use it in a while because I have a voip business phone and the sound quality on that was much better.
When I started checking out the apps, I realized that the Ipod Touch 2nd generation had a mic application built in unlike the previous version. So I thought I would give it a try.
I ordered some eom headset with built in mics from Ebay. Of course, they were sent out from Hong Kong. I received them today, and plugged them in and nothing.
I talked and left voicemail messages and was disappointed. I started reading the forums to see if there were mods or apps I needed to install to get the mic to work. My wife asked me what I was doing and I explained it to her. She asked if I had the volume on? DOHHHHHH
I tried the skype program again with the volume up and viola, it worked. I love being married to someone smarter than me. LOL.
