Secondo Andy Abramson il team di iSkoot è stato capace di sviluppare una soluzione quasi perfetta sullo Skypephone, che grazie al software di iSkoot offre funzionalità Skype integrate con l’interfaccia del telefono.

Su Android l’esperienza tuttavia non è ugualmente soddisfacente: problemi nell’effettuare chiamate a contatti skype, tempi di sincronizzazione e caricamento troppo lunghi, contact list che non riflette spesso il reale status dei contatti.

Here are the issues I found over after a few days of trying the app at different times since last Wednesday:

1) It doesn’t really work very well. My attempts on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday to connect by voice to others on my Skype buddy list failed each and every time.

2) The load and sync time takes minutes, not seconds. This may be a server issue, but since iSkoot isn’t inside the T-Mobile network yet, like they are with Three (3) the problem likely won’t go away too soon despite all of iSkoots world class engineers in Israel working to solve it.

3) Presence isn’t working right. I never saw my entire Skype buddy list as the presence information seems to not be real time. As a matter of fact, sometimes you don’t see your buddies on line that you may be chatting with on a Mac or PC using the real Skype client. I call it “pseudo presence,” which brings me to my next point. Is this really Skype on the Android or not? I think not.

The above three factors are what makes Skype so useful. If you don’t have them, you don’t have Skype, and only have a pretender.
