One more Skype post, then I'll try to stop. Really.
When you use the Skype phone, there is a contacts button which brings up all your iPhone contacts. So you can use that to call any of your normal telephone contacts with Skype-Out. So, without having to dial the number, I just placed a Skype-Out call to a colleague in Ireland on his GSM phone. Again, excellent quality on both ends. Not as good as Skype-to-Skype, but the limiting factor was his GSM codec. :D |

Just to be clear, since there have been questions, I have an old first gen iPhone, unlocked and jailbroken, running version 2.2. When I ran Cydia earlier this week, it prompted me to load the updates necessary to use Skype.
If you still can't get it to work after loading the necessary update from Cydia, try doing a full reboot of your phone, then run Skype before loading any other app. If that doesn't work, try removing apps until it does work. BTW what does a full reboot mean? just a simple on off right? |

I just noticed this thread http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/trave...arch-30-a.html which we should probably be using to talk about Skype.

Are there such apps that are internet broswers? At school, there is a strong wi-fi connection, but sadly they "are not compatible with your present browser."

My wife thinks I am nuts...but I just scored a 70. Anybody beat that yet? :cool:
Slightly OT but cool! How did you manage that. I can't get past 48. There are just too many of them after 40. Great game. |
Don't remember who was asking about a birthday reminder app. I was browsing through them & came upon this: ihappydays. It tracks bdays/anniversaries of people.

Without having any clue how I did it (I was very surprised when I saw the score!), got 85 a few days ago (and 81 yesterday).
Mostly, though, scores are in the 40s-60s The score depends hugely on how much alternation there is between airports/aircraft type. When a bunch of big/fast planes come at virtually at once headed for the main airport a collision is coming soon ;) ETA: WOW! I just scored 104! I think I'll quit. |
I'm a big fan of Lux DLX, basically iphone Risk...it's one of the few games I haven't tired of
|
My fave iPhone app? Bikini Blast. :D:D:D

New here so sorry if it's been mentioned before, but has anyone tried "7 Cities"? Very retro, and very addictive! Kept me amused for days on end.^

I just got 76 last night. It had been at 67 for a while. My strategy is to create several different paths for the different types of planes to try and make sure they don't run into each other. This would be similar to what ATCers do in real life. Of course it helps here that you can get planes to almost land on top of each other without crashing and that you can fly other types of aircraft right over planes landing on other runways.
