Re: Mobile phone for VOIP

The only thing I hated about having an integrated PDA/Phone was the
size.  There are a couple of newer phones that take care of this, so
it's not much of an issue anymore, but it is something to keep in
mind.

As for Skype, I'm using it on my Dell Axim X50, and it works just fine
for me via 802.11b @ home.  Since it's not a PDA/Phone combo, I can't
test it over a Cell network, but I'm assuming that if you are using it
on a Phone, you might be better off calling the person and using
minutes as opposed to most of the data plans out there :)
