Is the Skype Nomad phone in London or in China ?

Skype_nomad_phone_in_london_online_ How can it be that the Skype Nomad phone shows being in London, while the moodfield shows that the Skype nomad is in China somewhere... Obviously there is a Skype account being runned simultaneously somewhere in London. Or maybe it is just the local setting... I don't think so, since the time (as seen from my timezone) fits perfectly with London... People would starting this is a hoax... It is not of course, but here you see that with Skype ID's you can be in China and in london at the same time. Of course the person is in effect in China, but the phone seems to be online in London. If that is the case, then not very nice from Skype making people think that a Skype phone can be online globally all the time. Simply not true since you won't have perfect internet connectivity.. Next time such a marketing stunt should be cleaned up a bit more.

Jokingly, I could be doing a trip of the world by changing my Skype ID and location and load up some images while sitting in my couch in Malaysia... I am not saying it is a hoax, but It should be done properly. Now nobody will believe that this skype phone is really available online in China. It shows it is in London... 6am something.... Not smart, not smart....

Maybe I am saying this because I am still pissed off that I did not get the 3skypephone that I was promised by the 3Skype Press Office... It's a pitty because I was going to sell it as vintage on Ebay in 2020. Hahahahahah.

No offense but you are very wrong. The location field has to be changed manually, and if I choose to present my location as Singapore while sitting in Los Angeles that's my choice. What they simply did is created a profile in London and left it like that. It doesn't mean it's a hoax.
