I was wondering if there was a skype or clone thereof that would allow me to make internet phone calls through my Z. And, if it is available, does it work OK? I am using debian eabi.

What VOIP programs are known to work well? I've been meaning to tinker with it.
Thanks. |

From Wengophone FAQ: "Is there any embedded version being developed? Although we plan to support as much embedded platforms as possible, this work has not started yet."
I guess Wengophone is still too heavy for embedded device right now. I only had success with Kphone/pi on Tosa. Bringing Kphone/pi up-to-date is on my to-do list. |

QUOTE(xjqian @ Jan 10 2008, 03:47 AM)  Bringing Kphone/pi up-to-date is on my to-do list. that would be really good, especially if it could be made to work on angstrom/opie as well as sharp/qt! I used a hacked variant which had a different codec which worked well for me. |
