Can't use a number more than once, no biggie, just change the last digit. Even works on USA free phone, 1-800 numbers.

One observation - everything is proxied through the SkyFire server and so has a US origin, bit of a bummer if you are trying to get to BBC iPlayer TV as i was looking for the TV catch up stuff.

Oh well, have to make do with the radio. BBC Radio 7 Sci-Fi here i come.

Run web page from a storage card?

How do you run a web page from a storage card with the skyfire browser? What is the correct syntax? It is not the same as pocket IE or Opera. Thanks.

Hey, I have sound issues at times too.
Sometimes if I restart the browser it starts working again, but haven't found a for-sure way to get it to work again

I have the same experience... I have to keep starting up Skyfire and shutting it down, until the sound works. Once it works, it does pretty well (at least over Wifi, haven't tried to listen to music using GPRS).

I don't have wifi but it works very well over Sprint's RevA.

I also noticed if it IS going to work (the sound) a little speaker icon pops up pretty early in the page load (before the vid starts playing.) Might save u's some time waiting to see if it's going to work.

i don't think it support tytn2 pda's.already d/l it, try it, no sound came out

I have a Tilt and was having the same issue what i did was shut down Skyfire, reload then Menu\Actions\Mute Audio the speaker came up i clicked on it and then the Speaker shows active then load YouTube, have shut down Skyfire multiple times and it always works now. Like post above says if the Audio works you will see a speaker @ startup.
