Skype is the next phenomenon from the people who brought you KaZaA. Just like KaZaA, Skype uses P2P (peer-to-peer) technology to connect you to other users – not to share files this time, but to talk and chat with your friends.

The technology is extremely advanced – but super simple to use... You’ll be making free phone calls to your friends in no time!

New in this v3.0:
- Send files: free to send spreadsheets, photos, music and other files Skype-to-Skype.
- Send texts (SMS): great value texts to mobiles abroad, and a great way to avoid roaming charges abroad if you text on Skype from a WiFi zone.

Features:
- Free unlimited worldwide phone calls to other Skype users.
- Superior sound quality – better than your regular phone.
- Works with all firewall, NAT and routers – nothing to configure!
- Friends list shows you when your Skype friends are online and ready to talk or chat.
- Super-simple and easy to use.
- Your calls are encrypted “end-to-end” for superior privacy.
- Based on cutting edge peer-to-peer technology developed by the creators of Kazaa and Joltid.

If you already have a previous version of Skype installed on your Windows Mobile device, please uninstall it before installing the new version.

The new beta works like a charm over my WiFi at home. Only little issue is that the sound comes out via the speakers rather than the phone. Wish that could be fixed.

Skype is good on a pocket pc, but the only problem is that its slow when your on the phone part.
