Would be nice not to be tied down to one provider...]]>Nov 15th 2006 5:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/skype-launches-smc-wi-fi-phone-package-includes-la-fonera-and-h/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/skype-launches-smc-wi-fi-phone-package-includes-la-fonera-and-h/Will it be possible to associate a MAC address with one's FON account?
I have already tried using skype with a public FON access point *without* logging in and it doesn't work.

Knowing that Skype is a big investor in Phone, they should allow Skype to register without signing in, that would be very useful.

oh well let's just hope they wake up and leverage their network and allow the Netgear SPH101 to register as well.]]>Nov 15th 2006 5:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/skype-launches-smc-wi-fi-phone-package-includes-la-fonera-and-h/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/skype-launches-smc-wi-fi-phone-package-includes-la-fonera-and-h/
The battery life is abysmal, it lasts a day on standby and a few calls. That's a business day, put it on the charge by 6pm to use at 8 the next day.

It locks up from time to time in the middle of the night on the charger. It rings 10 times or about a full minute before going to voicemail with no way to set it shorter. it seems to have a lot of echo on the landline side I am told.

It probably will get better, but the updates are few and far between.]]>Apr 17th 2007 5:10PM
