Cool....

Not much use for UK T Mobile.

By the time the lady has finished talking on the test call it is all garbled.... And my responce played back is garbled too.

Good speed test resluts for internet access

Works fine for me on T-Mobile HOWEVER, this biiiiatch is a battery killer even when not signed in (it has the icon in the notification saying not signed in). I had to force stop it as this morning I lost 12% battery within a few mins and I wasn't even using the phone! battery levels have been stable since. Shoddy app. For those without a2sd/+ it takes 13MB of phone memory too! Can't believe devs are not using the sd option (esp when it's a company as big as Skype) when it's now supported in FroYo :) , it's a major reason I'm sticking with a2sd/+ for now.

same here, on r8. besides that sense started to crash and reload (i opted for sync all contacts), uninstalled and it all went back to normal. I am at console most of the time anyway :)

I got google framework crashing too having selected sync contacts. As soon as I selected don't sync, the crashes stopped.

As I said in my earlier post. Shoddy app. After so long too, what a miserable effort :)

Working well in Australia on r8

Volume is far too low though.. makes it not useable.
