Since yesterday I have problem connecting to skype. I have deleted and reentered my skype account but when I try to connect I get a fail message: "Sorry, can't connect to skype". Worked fine until yesterday. I have the same problem on 2 separate units (N9's) on different (swedish) carriers.

- in the next update you'll receive, the behaviour is still not perfect but a bit better (the touch area *above* the field is made a bit larger)
- in the next next update you'll receive, the issue is completely fixed. Too bad the fix didn't make it to an earlier release :-/

2. i prefer it to NOT auto capitilise my letters after a fullstop.. id rather me choosing when i want a capital letter..

Seems weird that Nokia cant get MSN to be native, what with their little partner-up with Microsoft.
Oh well, any news on a plugin for this?

I have once tried to package telepathy-python and papyon, and add the account with mc-tool, it worked fine. So the account plugin is really all that's missing.

Greyed out fields are read only yes, I agree it's not completely obvious, and showing the origin of the detail would surely help understanding the behaviour. But at the same time, we try to keep UI clutter at a minimum...
The fact that you cannot remove the number is not a bug though, it's a feature ;-) You get the contact from facebook as it is, and can't modify it (same way as you can't edit your friend's profile on facebook :-) ).
But I have a counter argument:
The phone book of my phone should be under my control, not under someone else's :-) So at least you should be able hide it from the call/sms dialog.
Maybe the grayed out field could still be active and when clicked could give a popup explaining why this field cannot be edited and give option to disable the number (or email address or whatever...).

Then, what happens if the number on Facebook changes? Do we still hide it? How do you "unhide" a number? Also means we'd need to have a list somewhere that says what details to hide for which contact, keep it up to date, etc...

edit: Reboot fixed it! Could have sworn I rebooted my phone several times yesterday. I think there should be a notification when leaving the ovi store that recomends you to reboot you device after an install has been made!
