hi
you can flash it with maemo flasher to the global firmware, i've been using it with the global version since i got it.
but just remember, THIS WILL VOID ur warranty, so before going to NOKIA CARE, remember to reflash to the INDIAN VERSION, and you're fine.

Thanks for the feedback
was able to flash it to the global version using maemo flasher and on XP.. windows 7 does not work.

Skype works like a charm though on video call i see my own image rather than the peron i am calling, im told this is because the other person needs skype 4.2

Having problems with Gtalk.. i can only use the instant messenger. the calling and video options dont even appear, same for all my contacts.

Any idea if certain settings need to be changed etc

cheers

Assuming you are using the global firmware version (or other version that has Skype support), there is built in support for Skype. There is no installable Skype application.
