  • Skype iPhone App Downloaded an Amazing One Million Times in Two Days [View article]

    @ eBay+++ who stated:

    "Where's all the eBay bashers today? This was suppose to be just a bunch of hype on Skype?"

    "eBay sell Skype...please!"

    Uh, you were saying eBay+++???

    Have you heard the news? Oh, you must have because you've been hiding behind that keyboard with your tail between your legs eating your words. lol!

    Skype is up for sale!

    That's also known as the "Skype Hype" eBay+++. LOL!!!

    I just love putting the eBay spin doctors in their place along with the other bottom-feeders...

  • Skype and Telecom Carrier Denial [View article]

    @ SoberUp

    I'm sorry you feel that it is better to censor opinions SoberUp and resort to name calling. Perhaps you should blog about that wonderful vocabulary of yours. Your statement in itself shows your lack of integrity.

    When people resort to name calling, they lose the respect of anyone who reads those words. I remember that type of childish behavior dwindling around the 4th or 5th grade, when children realized that name calling actually made the name-caller themselves look like an immature toddler that no one ever really listens to.

    I doubt that you will last long here or anywhere else for that matter with an attitude like that. Unfortunately, I fear your posts will no longer carry any merit what so ever.

  • Skype and Telecom Carrier Denial [View article]
    How true Et tu Brute! They'll whine their way into a long drawn out court battle over this too I'll bet. Skype filing a claim against "Joltid" comes to mind.

    I see this becoming a real set-back for the struggling Skype and eBay as a whole. With Revolution Money quickly climbing the peer to peer money transfers ladder - duking it out with PayPal - and eBay's continued decline in the marketplace, and now Skype having to contend with some major competitors, perhaps a nice plot over-looking the ocean might be considered.

    "At some point, there will be a real Skype for Android phones. So then what will Google do? Block it?"

    Maybe eBay shouldn't have blocked the use of Google Check-out from their marketplace. LMAO!!

  • Skype Is Coming to iPhone, BlackBerry: WiFi Only, for Now [View article]
    @SoberUp a.k.a. ebay+++ and User 380449

    "...and BTW Skype rules... "

    Yo dude that's just too gnarly - to the great white north, aye. I've read your 5 comments - was it? Your obviously a good little sheep for eBay, a pacifist and have spent absolutely zero time on the site. You sound like a republican.

    What doctor did you have in mind? An eBay "spin" doctor, so I could see the light?

    Oh, and if you're getting tired, why not curl up with a good book, an afghan, a glass of that world famous kool-aid along with your WI-FI and take a little nap-nap?

    eBay+++ is an eBay employee who has invested heavily in their dwindling stock. Any pro-active comments made by him is simply an attempt to recover his losses. The more clouded the truth, the more sheeple may fall for it, thus bettering his chances to recoup his losses.

    Enjoy your Charmin.

  • Skype Is Coming to iPhone, BlackBerry: WiFi Only, for Now [View article]

    "...Wireless carriers have viewed mobile Skype as a threat so for now it is being limited to WiFi. Apple limits voice applications in its App Store so they only work over WiFi..."

    Yep... Skype surely is limited. I don't see them getting past the finish line. Wireless carriers will keep this bottom feeder where it should be. With so many apps and competition, why would anyone want to use this tugboat?

    It's just a matter of time before these services are available from the ones who have the control. See ya Skype!
