How do they do it?

iChat A/V audio conferencing from New Jersey, USA to London, England works over a crappy, overloaded, internet connect. I hear people extremely well, even with the built-in Mac Powerbook mic. Oh, and I'm doing that over wireless (802.11)

Meanwhile, I have a Vonage VoIP phone plugged into the same network, except it's a hardwired connection (not wireless) and its staticy and difficult to hear the other person most of the time.

How does Apple do their magic?

Apple uses only the finest of bits and hops.
