As the momentum around Skype for iPhone + Blackberry(followed by their previous announcement on Nokia N73) gathers rave reviews from customers and media alike, I wonder why Vodafone continues to block Skype?
This is very old fashioned and as a long standing Voda customer, it may be cause to switch operators who will not do so.
Apart from the walled garden implications .. this affects me directly as a Vodafone customer and as a frequent traveller.
I have a friend who says that: SE C905 doesn’t allow me. It runs many JME apps, of course, but denies installation of quite a few, including Skype. So much about Open Gardens…
I see no reason now for Vodafone to block Skype now that its on Nokia, Blackberry and the iPhone.
Any reason why Voda could be legitimately blocking it?
Sadly, I will have to switch Operators if this does not change .. I have a large address book on Skype and the more that address book works on a phone .. the better it is for me ..
I probably won’t switch to the iPhone .. but being a Nokia + Blackberry user historically – N97 + Blackberry seems to be a good choice ..
vodafone doesn’t want to open skype because they don’t earn more and more… they don’t care about their customers and their programmers is not that good
just changed contracts from 3 2 vodaphone nearly halfed my monthly bills not a skype user but happy with there second phone help!
Yeah it would be good for vodafone to unblock skype. http://www.rapidsloth.com had an article on this issue.
