What a pity! I was really disappointed today - it appears you can’t make fring calls (SkypeOut or SIP calls) while you are not using an available WiFi connection on iPhone. After my good old Nokia E71 it looks really weird. We got a new 32 gig iPhone 3GS for my girlfriend and I was thinking about getting the same toy when my current plan is over. But that fact turns me away, sorry apple

If you are getting this exception from your Java program using HTTPClient library, that means the site you are trying to connect to has a test/self-signed or invalid certificate. The easiest way to workaround this problem is to grab InsecureSSLProtocolSocketFactory and InsecureTrustManager from HTMLUnit project and before making a request use this code:
JAVA:
-
final ProtocolSocketFactory factory = new InsecureSSLProtocolSocketFactory();
-
final Protocol https = new Protocol("https", factory, 443);
-
Protocol.registerProtocol("https", https);

I used skype-out extensively last month. I used to pay with my Visa credit card all the time and had no problems. Then Skype refused to process it saying I paid too much or something like that. I switched to PayPal. After a few hundred bucks it said I can't use PayPal anymore. The other means of payment are unknown to me and I am just lazy to investigate and get into another crazy payment systems. I switched to 12Voip for now. Looks good, also works from Fring client via SIP thingie.

What are those yellow dots that don't let scroll the chat window? Such a pain. And in general, the client app is getting worse. I wouldn't complain, but I am in fact paying 20-30 bucks per month for skype-out thingie, so I guess I have a moral right to complain
Need to get an older version and downgrade.
