is it a REAL Skype for 701 !!

Hi, i downloaded SKYPE for my bele from ovi store and started using it since 24hours , but i felt bad after seeing there is no video calling feature into it :smileysad:  , and one more thing i noticed is that when ever skype is being used the red proximity sensor is seen ON ! is that a flaw ?? 

 

please answer NOKIA  these 2 questions:-

1) is there any update coming for this skype version which provides video calling ?

2) what to do with that proximity sensor which is seen always on when using skype !?

Your first question can only be answered by Skype, not Nokia, go to their website and post in the forum.

1. Updates for Skype are provided by Skype itself.
2. Proximity sensor is very important, when you call somebody your cheek touches the screen, so call may disconnect if the touch screen is enabled, proximity sensor disables the touch screen when you place your phone near your face.

Hope you got it. :smileyhappy: :smileyhappy: :smileyhappy:

Happy that i got Skype.
