Gee...as an owner of the 770 I'd love to have Skype-anything on mine! Instead I had to install and register with Gizmo, which I have tried and works well, except for loading new contacts. Unbelievably difficult to simply load a list of contact names and phone numbers.

Well, I can't answer your original question, if you had one. Skype video is still not reliable for me from a dual-cpu AMD machine, 2GB memory, DSL. So I wouldn't be surprised it doesn't work well, or at all, from a tablet. The camera on the n800, is it a still camera or a webcam?

Anyway as an old fart who started computin' with punch cards and 300 baud teletype machines, I still think it's amazing I can:

Call Mexico City for 2.1 US cents/minute (back when I married my MC bride eons ago it was well over a dollar/minute, when a dollar was Real Money). Or free if they're running their computin' machine.

Sit in a cafe and use either the 770 or even a cell phone and call anybody I want for cheap.

Solve numerical problems on a $1500 desktop machine that I couldn't do with a $1.5M dollar mainframe not so many years past.
