I had that from the day I bought it, the oldies really are the goodies.

What I have now is a touch screen desk phone for my Skype based land line that does Chat, SMS and Video Conferencing for free! As seems to be the case with most business applications on the iPad it's like the iPhone just better. I'm sure it'll be available on other devices later, same as usual.

Welcome to the future, I was doing all that, for free also, on my Android Tablet well over a year ago.

Hello Time Lord! You have Skype for Android tablets before it's even been developed. Awesome.

Well thanks for your input, but I gave the same answer years before you but I deleted it before I started the thread.

Then why try to be clever? Or have you developed a way to decrypt the Skype protocol? That would make you very clever and also popular.

Battery's not too bad, 45% left, fully charged last night at 12 and have left Skype to it's own devices since. Made about one call an hour during office hours. Pretty heavy general use today, lots of reading and all of Scoobynet. I had to wake Skype up twice, not sure when it logs out.
