yackie mobile review

[GSM_student]

YackieMobile, our friend and really expert member Effendi report that had several issues in the Netherlands. Can we know if this issues will be solved or it is only up to 09 and there is nothing that Yackie can do?
I understand that works at KPN networks, but in this case may be should have a list with the best networks, for each country, at Yackie webpage, don't you think?

It works here fine. Usually roams on T-Mobile or Vodafone network. You couldn't reached the direct Icelandic number when calling from O2 mobile, it did connect on T-Mobile.

One more thing to mention. I have tested to call direct Icelandic number by using Rebtel some time ago and it just didn't connect, but done yesterday night again and it works very nicely. The price is good as well.

Just added US$50 to my Yackie Mobile account for a trip to Grand Cayman in early January(satisfied with November tests I did in Grenada). For security purposes, used PayPal rather than directly providing my credit card information. Account was immediately credited and received confirmation emails from PayPal, Yackie, and World Wide Web Owner(obviously a private labeled 09 Iceland account balance email from the .is domain).
Rate for Grand Cayman to US mainland seems very reasonable--outgoing to fixed line US$.45/min, incoming via US call-forwarding number US$.29, direct dial incoming to Iceland number free.
If my CECT M800 watch phone comes from Hong Kong in time, I'll see if Yackie works in it(sounds like something out of a James Bond or Dick Tracy movie!). Otherwise will use the Yackie chip in my Motorola Razr.
Backup will be a Digicel-Bermuda prepaid sim or an Iridium satphone.

@GadgetKen ... would you give me a short info if and how the combination M800 and YM SIM works? Thank you!

Will post a review on how the combination works when the watch arrives.

Yes, multiple models came out in the last couple of months: CECT M600, M700, M800, M900, W100, W100+ for triband GSM, SMS M500 for quadband GSM (very expensive), and the CDMA multiband F88 (uses CDMA RUIM SIM cards not commonly seen in the USA). I will try the M800 on several local and callback sim cards when it comes in and see how it works.

@YackieMobile ... I do not know what it is, but in Hungary my number is not availabale from the T-Mobile network it works from Pannon. I was hunting in Slovakia yesterday and YM was not to reachable in the Orange and the T-Mobile network. Please take at least a look about this issues.

Merry christmas to all!

As wrote earlier, YM works well on T-Mobile and Vodafone in Czech Republic. Good luck.
