I assume that I'm bad at interviews, but I've had people intelligently talk about code, but then completely fail at simple coding tasks. In pretty much all of the cases, they completely understood what was going on, but they were part of a team where someone else was actually implementing it all. So, I think more is needed. This seems to be great for screening though, since it can be done casually, on the phone or while eating a sandwich.
