    If you're in here considering buying this product then don't waste your money. 3 cannot build a tcp/ip network, they don't know how. Their mobile broadband doesn't work and the latency is far too high to use Skype. There is no reason to think that this new product will be any different and when you do have a problem their so-called "support" is a nightmare to behold. Once again then, 3 suck bigtime and are little better than legalised robbers.


    Thee data services are definitely in disarray. Rather than constantly tryng to rope in new customers with new features and services it would be nice if they took the time to get their exisitng services working either at all or in a reliable fashion.

    yep you can use Skype chat :)
    Skype out calls should be with us by June of next year (08)

    Skype chat only works on 3skypephone - other x-series models have a client which does not support text messaging to date.

    I'm very interested in where you heard about Skypeout being introduced in the new year. Can't see any telco offering this but I live in hope.

    Can't you just install your own skype client (like on the N95) and use Skypeout then over 3G or GRPS?

    Any problems that you may have heard off with the quality of skype calls is nothing to do with three's network. Once you make a voice call using the three skype client it is carried over their regular voice network and does not use the data allowance for anything other than showing if you are online or not. If there is a problem with the quality of the voice call the it will be due to the internet connection to the person that you are calling.
