First there is a data connection with a very little data traffic to ISkoot to show me the online status of my Skype contacts and to chat (with the next version of ISkoot). As soon as I hit "Call" ISkoot dials a local Landline number and uses it as a Gateway to Skype (for the duration of the whole call). This Landline number is covered by my phone flatrate - so no costs for me there.
Do you know how much the "very little data traffic" based on your experience?
What provider are you on in germany?
About that Voip review - Fring works fine with my P1i and I have no clue why it doesnt with your phones (probably branding) and as long as it works great (both sound volume and quality) with about 6 SIPs I am going to use that and not pay the 20 Euro
SE should make that software free if they're going to sell the P1i and name it "VOIP enabled"

apologies for the total newb question but I'm a complete novice re: viop/ sip etc and trying to get my head around it. Are the following assertions correct?
the optimobile uniphone is like an email client? and the sip settings would be like you imap or pop3 settings - is this correct? if so (as i have a skype account) do i already have sip setting from that account (and where do i find them?) or do i need to sign up with a sip service?
If so what sip services should i start looking at?
many thanks - i just need a little help to get in the game
cheers eske

No, with a skype account you can only call other skype account.
Here in France, a SIP account is given by my internet provider (for example "orange" or "free"). It's usually used with a normal phone and not a mobile phone

@Peio
Actually you are incorrect you can call other numbers be they land line or mobiles anywhere in the World with Skype out at very low cost. You can only call Skype to Skype for free.
@eske
If you already use Skype which is a propriety software and you have lot's of contacts already that use Skype just use Fring which will show your Skype contacts on your device and allow you to make Skype out calls. Fring also offers many IM clients as well and best of all it's free. I really fail to see any reason to pay for software when a free solution that works well is available especially if you mainly use Skype and Fring also supports SIP.

Hi,
Just got my P1 and eager to use any form of voip on it!
Using wifi all seems to work well when using Fring (skype and gizmo sip).
After switching to data everything still works fine.
However if I start using data before using Wifi, I get the following error:
"This phone does not allow VOIP calls in GPRS mode."
I haven't installed the two "drivers" as my phone said they were already installed.
I'm a bit concerned in overwriting these.
What should I do??
Thanks!

UPDATE:
Sorry, now I understand my phone switched to and from UMTS to GPRS. When on GPRS it's not working, but on UMTS it works.
