      From anyone that has access to a NOKIA N9: does it include Skype application?

      Moved to The Lounge, as it is no Qt tropic and also no programming topic, Gerolf

          Are we talking about an application or just integration with the OS? Also, if there is an application, is it capable of video calls using the front video camera? :-)

              There seems to be an application and an OS integration (it connects to the address book if I interpret it correctly).

                Gerolf and Volker, thank you both for your answers. :-)

                I am mainly interested in the application.

                If someone who has an N9 could clarify if the application uses the front camera, please do so.

                  I have no peer to test with right at the moment :-)

                  If you happen do have a Skype account, PM me, I then can test.

                    Hi,

                    I tested skype on my N9:
                    it looks a bit strange to me, I did not find my contacts as list and there was no video phone, just normal skype talk. And I could not start a skype talk via skype, perhaps that must be done via contacts?
