I've actually mailed the Nomad and asked for an interview to better understand what exactly it was that she did - and so if there is a response I'll post the interview here so we can all be enlightened :-) @ J.A. – I think you’ve hit the nail on the head there, that’s essentially what I was alluding to.

Did she report on availability and quality of Skype in various locations? Did she report or roaming data costs? Did she compare functionality and usability of various Skype devices in different situations? Sadly, the answer to all of the above is "NO". Basically all she did was travel around the world at Skype's expense, and keep a travel log. She could have accomplished just as much by carrying a "SKYPE" sign as she did by taking mobile gear.
