Just a question...are you able to use Skype on the HTC Magician if you have a WI-FI card? Or is the processor speed and RAM too low to allow that?

Yup - I've used it. As you may or may not have guessed, the speaker doesn't function in quite the same way as it does when you're in a normal phone call... I'm guessing that Skype sends its audio output to the device speaker at a normal system volume level (unlike when in a call - the vol is set so that you can put your ear to the speaker).

In addition to this, in the calls I've made, I've noticed a fair bit of feedback (not sure which end of the call was the worst culprit, but the feedback happened none-the-less). To combat this, I simply plugged in the normal stereo handsfree headset. However, whilst I'm sure the audio was coming out of the headset only, I'm not sure about which microphone was picking up the sounds (internal or headset). It doesn't really matter though, because it worked and it successfully stopped the feedback :)

HTH,
