its an ingenious idea.. basically an unlimited 3G data plan, no extra services with skype installed... you can get a dirt cheap subscription to skype for unlimited local and long distance to landlines, and even your own phone number people could dial to call you, and technically your own phone number would count as a VOIP landline so they wouldnt have to pay extra to call a mobile all for what? 5 euro a month?... now i wish i lived in the UK so i could give cell phone providers the finger
what is the fair usage??? and how much money do you need to top up per month to get free skype calls? also does the skype text chat apply with the skype call useage.
You dont need to top up any extra a month for the skype function for free! U can even use it when you have no credit! This phone is just plain amazing man!!! So cheap too!!!
the landline subscription is awesome for the pc. about 2 pound 33 a month to phone unlimited uk landlines(fair usage 1000 minutes) free skype number and voicemail. you can also buy a euro subscription and a world one for slighly more in price. and you can move your details over to phone so you can use it on the go
this phone rocks, ya can use 2gig sd even though it says 1gig max , can call skype to skype for totally free, only prob is they left out skypeout and also skypein numbers dont ring either :( not even if ya transfer call from another skype with skype in , ya can go on confrence calls stick calls on hold and move to other calls with the 3 network also get connected to conference calls through skype although you cant start a conference but all in all 10 outa 10 for value n style
Grazie per il tuo messagio, i live in italy and my language is not great ;-(
however was nice to see ur video and ive ordered a 3 skype phone.. not 99 euros, but 24 euros. with 3 years contract ( madonna!!!) and just 10 euros a month.. not to bad really, still cheaper than England lol
how much does this thing cost to actually own ? i mean it's advertised as free calls but i've heard £10 a month, and as far as i'm aware that's not free
I just ordered one, and then looked at your review, looks like a great phone. This should shake up the mobile phone networks. Today i am leaving Vodafone after more than 15 years for the 3 Network!
can i skyout with this cellphone???

non capisco perchè quando chiamavi i contatti on line ti diceva che non era possibile raggiungerli....
e comunque quel sistema di deviazioneno mi piace per niente, come la vocina della tipa, non potevano farlo funzionare direttamente come da pc a pc?
comunque w skyphone bisogna pigliarcelo tutti cosi' non pagheremo piu'un cent...........
thebrakko 4 years ago
perchè l'utente o era occupato con un'altra telefonata o era con una connessione che non permetteva chiamare vocali come una GPRS.
Il sistema di deviazione permette di avere una maggiore qualità voce
