Cheap VOIP service for India

Recently I found out a very cheap VOIP service for calling India, its called Xeloq (http://www.xeloq.com/). Here you have to purchase a prepaid card for EUR 12.5, 25 ..... , they will deduct 5% service fee if you use credit card. The calling rates are really cheap (.041 EUR/min).

Some highlights :
1. Best part, it totally uses data connection ( if using on mobile GPRS, 3G..)
2. I have nokia E61i, hence I have configured the SIP settings to use this service.
3. They have per second billing, so if your call ends in 10 sec. you pay just Rs 0.50 :)
4. Xeloq provides a software which you can install on you pc and make calls thru net.

Skype 2.2 Installation on Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 SE PocketPC

Skype 2.2 is not supported on Windows Mobile 2003 as on the I-Mate Jam, but there is a workaround to get it going. This problem arises as the active sync given by I-Mate does not recognize the version of skype setup( which is compiled only for Windows 5.0 ).

Steps:
Do the following :Install the new version (4.5) of Active Sync on your PC from here

Install skype 2.2.0.37 from here and you are done !!!!

There is a catch in this situation. If you sync your mails etc then your other programs won't be able to synchronize using this upgraded version of Active Sync. Hence after skype is installed its recommended to uninstall 4.5 and re-install the version provided by you mobile company.

Setting up eXist database with OpenLaszlo

While trying to install eXist in the OL environment, I did the follwing changes to make it run.

1. Make the standalone installation by using the eXist.jar file ( installation is a simple process ).
2. Then copy exist[ver..].war file to the C:\Program Files\OpenLaszlo Server 4.0b1\Server\tomcat-5.0.24\webapps\exist" location. Start OpenLaszlo, it will extract all files there.
3. Copy the lib folder from the exist installation to "C:\Program Files\OpenLaszlo Server 4.0b1\Server\tomcat-5.0.24\webapps\exist" location.
4. Go to the C:\Program Files\OpenLaszlo Server 4.0b1\Server\tomcat-5.0.24\bin folder and edit the catalina.bat file. Add the following lines :

set JAVA_ENDORSED_DIRS=%CATALINA_HOME%\webapps\exist\lib\endorsed

Restart OL and then eXist will start running by this URL : http://127.0.0.1:8080/exist/index.xml
