I use Skype with my Bose earbuds with mic. It works flawlessly.

Skype work well in Wifi (not yet got the chance to use the new Skype with 3G) my wife use it everyday for call our staff in several country … Skype to Skype or Skype call and no trouble even our network is not that strong

Ipad is a Phone

Newbie thoughts...


I have just got my wifi ipad and sorting out the basics.


Signed up for both VoiceCentral (by RiverTurn) and Line2 (by Toktumi)
Seems they are both working on my ipad.

I have no idea if they 'fill the bill' regarding what you are looking for.
Not even sure they are wifi dialing.

Check them out; Line2 is $15/mo. and VoiceCentral seems to be free.


Have others tried them out? Which do you like and why?


Thanks!

Tried to use whistle phone but you can only phone US numbers for free. Since I'm in Canada, this doesn't really work for me.

I hope they set it so us UK users can phone from our ipads aswell.

The latest update for Skype says that it sends pushes when you get calls even if the app is not active. I haven't checked it, tho, but that's a major addition if it works!

I have used the whistle app and it has worked pretty good if you overlook the adds when first making a call.

Al.

Whistle is a great app and I have used it! My comment, however, was that I was trying to make the point that the iPad, the way it is now, even the 3g version, is NOT a phone as one poster suggested.
