Another Satisfied Customer…

We love good reviews. And while it’s true that the 3 Skypephone has been pulling in plaudits at a fast and furious pace these past few months, this review right here might just be our favorite.

Authored by unabashed phone geek TechnicalMarkus over at Mobile Phone News, the write-up is entitled “Skype-adeedoodah Skype-adeeday - the wonders of the 3 Skypephone” (that’s just darn good writing right there), and in it TechnicaMarkus conveys some pretty enthusiastic commentary about the dedicated Skype handset we’ve all come to know and love.

He introduces: “In another one of those shockingly-rare (honest) ‘Technical Markus decides to impart knowledge whether people want it or not’ moments, I’ve decided to talk a bit about a mobile phone I had a chance to have a muck about with this week, that I really have fallen in love with.”

Oooh, we like love. Go on…

“I’m talking about the 3 Skypephone, the very first mobile phone to feature Skype access, straight out the box. I’ll admit, it came out a while back…but I only had my first chance to play about with one last night. As it happens, I was in for a bit of a surprise. Because I liked it. I really liked it! I was expecting something gimmicky and stupid. I was wrong.”

These things happen, TechnicalMarkus. Now tell us what you’ve learned.

“[I]t’s not just a ‘mobile phone that happens to have Skype,” it’s a proper, full on Skype Phone, where its very reason for existence is the Skype messenger built into it…In fact, with the Skypephone, you get FREE calls to other Skype users (and yes, that doesn’t just mean SkypePHONE users, but anyone who uses it on their PC as well!)”

Behold, the beauty of a fully-integrated mobile VoIP solution. And the usage experience:

“So, how long was I on the phone for, last night, using Skype…?

Let’s just say…quite a long while!”

That’s what we like to hear. :) Thanks to our friend at Mobile Phone News for the positive feedback.
