However, it would not be an exaggeration to say that I installed the application on the phone, configured it for the PBX and was making calls in less than 10 minutes."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Temporale-20060120-cicerophone.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />Matt Lewis takes a look at the Cicero VoIP client for Windows Mobile Smartphone. While there are not many WiFi enabled Smartphones out there, it's nice to know that there is a solid client ready and waiting for WiFi to come to your phone. :mrgreen:

if i'm going to pay 600$, then i want the wifi, bluetooth, and ability to go on internet thru gprs, its not 100% necessary to have wifi on this smallphone, but sometimes its useful, for downloading your mail when u're not near a pc for example, downloading the hotmail is very fast and simple with wifi or gprs.

Skype doesn't have a Smartphone version. Someone has hacked the existing Pocket PC version and got it to work on the Smartphone. More details can be found here. (http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=10002) 8)

I'd imagine in the future, cellurer carriers all evolves into simply wireless ISP. Cell phones are simply VoIP phones which can work through either Wi-Fi, direct cable link or cellurer data service depending on where your location is. This way, you can get away with poor cell coverage problems in most office buildings by using office Wi-Fi or just intranet at work.
