hi!...a couple of cons for this phone...there's no led light on top to signal the receiving of a new mail,message...etc...the screen will lit up and show the message on the top bar,but for a second...if u miss that you will never know you have a message....and u have to check for messages by pressing the power button on top of the phone to lit up the screen...kinda annoying and i think a little led light will save battery life in stead of having the whole screen lit up just to check for messages...
on the top left of the phone is a proximity sensor that shuts off the screen when you take a call...now that interferes with your hand when you use it to touch the screen for usual use, causing a screen shutoff that you don't actually want....
the phone has front-facing camera that is not yet supported by skype...

I have no problem using Skype on my G2x. You can also download an app called LG 2X/Black/3D Notifications. It can be setup to flash the leds at the bottom for incoming messages, mail missed calls.
