[TheBuzzArchive]

FAIL!!!

[trabajador98]

Help !!! I just got one of these and everything is OK but the audio. The sound is terrible, sounds like it is far away and some words can not be understandable ...is it the way this device is or there is something wrong with mine ??

[nagyzoltangabor]

Full video! Gratulation! How much is this device?

Good video!

Bought one for $160USD for elderly parent. PERFECT for them; I have it set to auto-answer. I may even use the neighbor's wireless (with their permission) and avoid the broadband costs.

@scpeer Where did you get one for USD$160? Seems they're going for $250+, according to Google - even in Taiwan. Please let me know - thanks!

[scpeer]

@RafaelArchuleta I believe it was on Amazon. Pricing seems to fluxuate; I may have bought before they were in full-favor. Similarily, I bought an RCA Flip-Cam for $19 when they weren't HOT and no one was buying them.

[aniket2812]

@ecotts : I totally agree with you..PSTN should be integrated .. then it will be perfect!

@myukvisa You dont know anything about small countrys you stupid american.

[Tarvo888]

my country invented skype!

[kwailok70]

this phone is exactly what i need!

[ULAZYCOOK]

so does this do standby? or you have to turn it off when not in used

[wheresaldo]

I have 2 units, same problem, it cannot keep a wifi connection and loses the wifi password. I constantly need to enter the wifi password. I have tried WEP and WPA and same problem. I have also tried in different wireless networks.

I have talked with Asus support, replace one unit 4 times and same problem.

Please, contact me if you are having the same problem.

[ecotts]

No PSTN...

Every Pc Free Skype phone has both PSTN & Ethernet (Skype), even the cheapest ones.

For the price of this thing I want both and im your target audience.

Add PSTN with voicemail and i'll buy one.

What warranty will this ship with, for the price of it I'd want more than a year. especially with that touch screen. Oh and i wouldn't want white plastic, I would want black.

Asus should do a promotion to get a bulk of these circulating, before ramping the price up.

Thanks for your feedback! I'm going to send your comment to the Eee Phone dev. team.

little phone you said??

iphone sounds more like little to me compared to that only skype phone. i think iphone can do many other things

[minipcpro]

i am not getting it... this has nothing to do with any iPhone and i am not comparing it to any smartphone

[radsujanto]

I think it's a cool device. but it looks like only Skype that works using that device.

[ralaningalls]

Very cool. This could be the future of IP phone if it had an Internet connection.

[minipcpro]

well it does of course. Wifi and ethernet

[ralaningalls]

Let the Skype takeover of the major phone carriers begin.

[anthony1258]

Very cool! Any idea on availability and pricing?

[minipcpro]

it's around $230 and should be available now

[rudyiking]

Really neat idea!

Anyone say hackability!

[cbrpnk]

really cool phone, the only problem is that you need to "double click" icons, but i guess a firmware update will fix that

[mcfairyland]

OMG!!...is THIS the phone....god i´m disapointed...here i was thinking we would get...well, not this!...i was expecting a cell phone..i saw a picture of the phone and was like "ooh lala".

ok yeah, this phone is cool...but i soo wanted it to be a cell phone!

[Pinwormx]

Interesting.

[weld3z]

[minipcpro]

[jkkmobile]

[minipcpro]

hahaha
