Here's another thing I noticed.  The skype on the N73 is locked down to stop 'Skype Out' i.e. you cannot take advantage of Skypes cheap calls overseas etc (hardly surprising 3s model would collapse!).  So Skype on Symbian is locked down.

Anyway, because I had difficulty slinging on the N73 - I got an unlocked HTC TyTn windows mobile device to sling onto.  That worked fine.  I then for curiousity installed the windows mobile skype client - and guess what - NO LOCK DOWN.  I just made a call to australia at 2 euro cent a minute over the 3 UK cell phone network via skype.  How cool is that!
