Forget iSkoot. Useless POS.

This has to be the saving call for Skype since competitor Rebtel VOIP was probably killing them. Rebtel doesn’t need to run any software for ANY phone!

Just sign up, get some local numbers assigned, and then use it from ANY celphone! No data plan needed! Cheaper than Skype for some international calls too without the per-call connection fee hit.

loaded it onto my ATT V3xx and it works like a charm with the Verisign certificate version!! AWESOME call quality via ATT’s 3g network!

For BB users, try iskoot. It works very good on my bb curve. You do need wifi to use it.

I was hoping they would at least have a version for the Bold. I don’t know why Blackberry is getting no love from Skype.

I am still waiting for the app that will allow video calling from my cell phone (a Nokia N95-3) to someone online like on Skype, GoogleTalk, Msn Messenger, etc. either using 3G or WiFi…is it even possible to do? I don’t see why it wouldn’t be if you can do cell to cell video calling.

Is BlackBerry not a Java enabled phone? That would be good news for me.
