Skype behaves differently on the Nokia to Windows XP. Skype support tell me I have to contact Nokia. I can't contact Nokia as their contact page times out on me.

My question is about the software and why the features I am used to seeing on one platform (PC) are not seen on another (Nokia N800).

With the lack of a user guide that points out the issues about chat whilst talking to the same person I am left to think that it is a Skype software design fault. It has little to do with the hardware, other than of course some one has ported Skype to it.

When I start a call from the Nokia N800 I can't get to chat unless I disconnect the call. I can then chat. If I am in chat I can't start a call. From chat I can't answer a call coming in.

I get a window over the chat screen with the phone pad but I can't return to chat although I can view the text coming in.

In Windows I am used to using chat to send image files and text that I can then talk about.
