Deduct a point for lack of originality. I think EQO’s logo a little too close to Skype’s, especially since their in the same space. Deduct a point for lack of originality.

Support for 450 mobile phones sounds good. I would guess their current client is J2ME, but from their job listings they are also looking at developing symbian and.net native apps in C++. What's in a name? Why is that fifth grade? I don't really care what they call it? Any suggestions for better names? People seem to be mad at the amount of capital raised; jealousy is evil.
