What is actual sound of "Skype", which is one of the famous internet voice phone service.
Some of Chinese friends around me keep sounding "Sky-py" or "Sky-Pee", but I believe American doesn't sound "pee".
One of example sound is from one of Ted presentations: http://www.ted.com/talks/david_pogue_on_cool_phone_tricks.html
He sounds "Sky-ee-p" or "Sky-ip".
One of rules on English sound is that if "e" follows any consonant, the sound of "e" comes first.
Examples are "Swipe", "Plane" and "Pane".
