You can't call people directly out of your iPhone contacts because you have to have "+1" in front of ever number. So you have to manually enter any phone number you want to call. 2. The disconnect button is easily pressed by your face when you are using it, constantly disconnecting the call. The site was also down for the first day and wouldn't let you buy skype credit to actually use the app. And no 3G is lame. Very poor roll-out considering they are a well established company.
