I have never liked to use dos or windows. Perhaps it is because I am a Dutch an honest guy and did not want to run illegal software and neither did I want to pay for it. The possible communication I was able to have with real (windows running) people has always been compromised. When I used pine , they used html based emailing. GnomeNeeting and other hacks never worked because of NAT problems. nokia video calling beta also did not work as expected. That is why i have been asking my parent who live in France to install different programs over the years. But last week it happend

BIG SUCCESS: Skype video calling beta for linux worked with skype for windows and my kids where able to talk with their grand-parents. If that works I call it Ubiquitous! we had no problem with echo's and we talked for about one hour. for me this is really a big step in the right direction.

In the same week I have a good working gizmo video call with a other n800 user. That was a smaller success of course.

So guys. The real problem currently is that all that software has some constraints,
Skype video is not there for the n800 , gizmo video is not there for a normal linux distro and google/nokia beta calling is not usable.

Who will introduce Ubiquitous video calling?
