“I am absolutely loving my Skypephone from 3” begins Eric Ong from the oddly monikered ‘fifty-one banana blog’ – and proceeds to talk on, extolling the virtues of a number of the phones features that have so impressed him. First in his ‘positive’ list is the price, “it’s a great gadget and definitely worth the £45” and thus, full of praise, he goes on to talk about the unlimited internet access for £5, TV channels available to buy and A2DP profile which by all accounts “delivers stereo to your bluetooth handset effortlessly”.

Of course there are a few niggles here and there – “the most annoying being having to turn it off/on again after losing the dialup connection when using as it a modem” – but overall, an extremely positive review.

Thanks Eric!
