That’s right!:

RTX denies the USB Skype DualPhone works in Vista eventhough it has been fixed for it.

Here are the updated FAQs which read:

“Q: Can I use USB DUALphone together with Windows Vista?
A: No, you can only use Windows XP/2000/2003-server with the product.”

However quoting the release notes:

“Release notes for cordless DUALphone suite v2.22
14/12 2006
[…]
– Added support for Windows Vista.

—–

Release notes for cordless DUALphone suite v2.32
2/5 2007
[…]
– Bugfix: Vista audio device handling.
– Bugfix: Vista User Account Control (UAC) issues.

—–

02/10 2007
[…]
– Vista sound devices: Automatically show hidden devices.”

This step is very unlogical and sad in my eyes. I hope it will work nicely in Wndows 7!

That’s right!

Here is what they write.:

“Get your own @myspace.com address
Send and receive messages from inside or outside
the MySpace Network
A uniquely MySpace twist on mail”

Just the problem is:

can only send emails from it but not receive! The privacy settings are set to “Open – Allow all to email me”.

I am working with MySpace Support on the issue now, I hope they will fix it! In past in contrast to Orkut and Facebook, they were responding and fixing issues I had experienced! 😎

(By the way: even though been told it will be worked on and fixed, it never has been, after 3 years now!).

MySpace also released a video. Among of the things they promise are unlimited storage and perfect privacy!:

There are some news around Ipev, the makers of the SOLO, the S0-20, etc.

First bit of news: As since around July, a earplug headset is shipped with the phone (source: Ipevo’s Facebook Group Forum).

Quoting Pauline Peng:

“Sorry, we don’t have any headset.
But the S0-20 comes with a earbud which can make your hands free, do you want to give it a try?

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Pauline @ ipevo“

Second news:

Something for the ICQ fan and geek: ICQ bedclothes – which can be ordered from this German mail trader.

So ICQ got it all. Now Skype should also think about selling all kind of stuff, too! How about starting with teeth brushes that can be used as microphones or PC tower cases with the Skype logo on them for the uber-geek? =)

Or adding your skype name in your personal ID card? heehehehe

When playing with Facebook, I found out that it is actually possible to connect Moneybookers to your Facebook account by a Moneybookers app. So I did that and now if you are a friend on facebook. But I don’t think anybody will really do this 😀

It’s interesting to see how superior Moneybookers over PayPal is, in some areas!
