    No i don't wanna know when is Skype coming to the z10
    I just want to know why is it going to be ported and not native
    They said that they're improving a ported version of Skype to be released on the z10, before the z10 was released
    So we've been waiting for months.
    Wouldn't be better if they used these (insert number here) months to develop a native app instead?
    Game loft had no trouble redeveloping N.O.V.A and the amazing spiderman for the z10

    They never said why. I still hold out the hope that this delay is because they decided to go native after all :-p But in think it's because as Android ports go this one may be more integrated than most. They might be including it in the hub etc.

    The delay is because they want it to be headless which is coming in 1.1.

    As for it being a port... well its less upfront work and they can then take their time on a native app if the device sales deem it prudent (which personally at this point in time with my information I think we have reached that point)

    Was there confirmation that 10.1 would bring headless API'S. I was under the impression that that would not be the case with the next update. That 10.1 was more geared to the release of the Q10.Maybe I missed something?!
