    Such a piece of ****. Cannot sign out of service and in the process destroys Skype on My Pc. Hopefully this gets fixed someday, not holding my breath tough.

    doesn't work with my Windows HTC, sound keeps coming through the speaker and headset mic doesn't function but works perfectly on mobile network call, disappointing really.
