Thanks for the rant, SamGan. At least I know I'm not alone.
So are we stuck with GoogleTalk for video calls? Is a video call app beyond the capability of the MeeGo community?

@latency, I have videochatted on my N9 with both an iPhone 4 and Android phones. The only issue is getting your friends and family to open a Google account. Assuming their device is adequate, i.e. Gingerbread and Talkx for iPhone, you're videochatting. Most people have Google accounts in my social field anyhow.

FINALLY got something out of the Peregrine devs:
jbos: hi, basically peregrine is stoped
jbos: no ongoing work
Me: @jbos Thank-you for your kindness in responding. Why is that? It looked very promising…
Me: Just 2mth ago it seemed you were going to continue. As I recall you just had some technicalities you were trying overcome.
Me: Please if possible can I get a response before the weekend. I believe it's 5pm in Germany now.
Me: It's hard to get you guys, so some final detail on what happened would be really appreciated! Thank-you.
Me: @jbos? Please! Before you leave for the week-end. Thank-you!
jbos: well
jbos: there are other projects and the N9/N950 is really not a good platform for creating a IM
jbos: with telepathy
jbos: the system uses telepathy and hooks into it quite against the documentation
jbos: so we decide to stop and do new stuff
jbos: didn't make any sense

Hopefully someone else will manage to get Skype video calling to N9. Google video talk is nice, but I would like to be able to do video calls from one phone to another. Pretty much the rest of the world use Android and Iphone and currently it doesn't work to do video calls from N9 to those.
Ok I've been trying back and forth to make it work with vtok for Android and iPhone. It works with Talkx then? Thanks for showing me the ligth I'll give that a try.

Just noticed that Harmattan bugzilla is closed for submitting new bugs. That's a clear sign of Harmattan's end.
