..."built-in" I don't think you understand how an OS work. skype is PREINSTALLED on the n800-810-900 while on the iphone it's a couple clics away; not much different. and I have a lot of trouble finding any 10$ data plan for a smartphone (here in NorthAmerica); it's more like 30$ to 50$ option over a regular voice plan. don't get it wrong, I have a n800-770 and 810 but I can see this forum being drown under massive fanboyism and pure hate instead of facts
