P4350 or P3600 for Skype compatibilty?

Which phone do you suggest has best performance with Skype out and Skype In
also do the Skype mobile versions support skype SMS and does this work well.
Battery issues and performance with Skype running on each model?
I have read a few things about the GPS functionality on P3600.. is this true?

Skype: The 4350 (Herald) only has a 200MHz processor, so technically the P3600 ought to be better as Skype is processor intensive. Skype 2.2 doesn't work properly with 3600; not sure about 4350. Skype 2.1 works fine.
Of course the major difference is that the 4300 has a hard keyboard. For a faster processor, wait for the Tytn II
GPS: There are no problems with the P3600 GPS. Most reported problems are either due to people messing with the default settings, or not configuring the Application settings of the various GPS programs properly.

Skype 2.2 works great with mine P3600. For chat only

Are You Serious?
Using Skype for Chat only, is, well,.....
Looks like Skype/Google folks are planning something. It´s plain deadbrain to kill some devices out of your "latest" SW upgrade.
Don´t you think?.
I just have had to pass 2.1 to some surprised friend that just bought a new P3600.
Unbealivable.

I have replaced it with v2.1 and everything's just fine now. Voice calls are OK.

No - it's not at all true. You have not read a few things about the GPS functionality on P3600 at all.
If you could explain what you think you read - I could have a go at answering.
TO let you know - with recent (since March) ROMs, the GPS functionality is activated and works very well indeed.
Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying!

That's what I meant, 2.1 works OK with voice calls.
I haven't tested the SMS feature.

Lucky man!
Where in the world you get "unlimited" voip 3G access for free? (monthly flat rate I suppose) I want that too! ;o)
I'm sure you have spoiled lot of jealous readings on your post......
BTW do you have a reading on how much 3G Mb data your Voip calls use per minute?

Inbox Synchronization in the new Google Voice app

Hi,
I installed the latest Google voice app, it has the kool new contact strip and the option for in box synchronization on the nexus one and the droid as ive witnessed. But when i install it on the G1 with a 2.1 rom i get the contact strip, but its missing the option for inbox synchronization.
Are us G1 users stuck without push still 5 minute check ins only?
Anyone know a hack or fix for this? thanks
PS. i tried pulling the apk from a droid that had the option, but when i install the exact same apk on the G1 i dont get the inbox sync option.

anyone? i mean who dose not want push?

I answered this my self since none of you are willing to help
It appears that this is only a problem on Kings roms, he drops the ball allot
Just use super eclair and you get the sync options, plus its far faster.

Calling friends in USA from UK - options?

If i need to call friends in USA, on my nexus one in the UK. what are my options?
Google voice would obviously be the best but that doesnt work in UK atm......
Skype is only available on verizon android devices.
Fring has no skype any more and it was laggy anyways.
Thanks in advance

Using what on their side? Mobile? Desktop?
Nimbuzz for Skype.
Fring (with their own client, not through Skype or anyone else) for mobile to mobile.

Sorry, erm mobile usually on the other side (in USA)
Is Fring lag free? or acceptable standards like skype?
Any experience via Nimbuzz for skype?

12voip or nonoh
I am using VOIP services like nonoh or 12voip and sipdroid to call my parents on mobile or fixed networks (they are however in Europe not USA).
You can check and see if you can use these for calling in USA.

Using Nimbuzz for Skype myself, to talk to desktop Skype clients.
Works good, 3G and WiFi.
(but I have good 3G speeds, mostly).

[Q] Is there a voice plugin for gmail calling?

I noticed the "call phone" option is now appearing in gmail using skyfire. Is there a voice plugin that the nexus one can use? The regular voice plugin doesn't work.

Does anybody know? This would give us free calls from Canada to USA and vice versa. Is there a plugin or can one be ported to nexus one?

Best setup for free calling!

so im travllling to cuba for a week, and i need a setup to make free calls there to canada. please help or url

Skype or Google Voice
Skype is the best option if you will get a 3G/ wifi connection.
If you have google voice preinstalled in your phone, that is good too.
