Mobile guru Steve Radford received his 3 Skypephone yesterday and although not into the full throes of the device he states that his first impressions are positive.

Commenting on its small proportions and the sensation one gets of good build quality when handling it, Steve resists going overboard in the praise stakes, opting instead to reserve judgment whilst maintaining an open mind until he has spent a day or two with the phone. Steve, 3mobilebuzz awaits your updates.

He does, however, suggest that at the price of a penny less than two pony’s, with free Skype to Skype calls, the 3 Skypephone should not be sniffed at.
