The Skype 3.0 is now available for Windows Mobile handsets. The latest  build offers some new features, including a slightly updated UI, the ability to send files back and forth via Skype-to-Skype, and allows to send SMS messages from the app itself via Wi-Fi, which lets users avoid text roaming fees.

Download Skype 3.0 for free now.

Finally an official Skype application will soon come to the iPhone and BlackBerry handsets. The iPhone will get it this Tuesday, while BlackBerry owners will have to wait until May.
The official build will not require additional audio transcoding, will use only Wi-Fi instead of EDGE or 3G, and will support calls to SkypeOut contacts in addition to many other features available on the desktop client.

Skype 3.0 beta has been released today for Windows Mobile bringing the ability for users to send files to each other, and even send SMS text messages via Skype. Other features go as usual: free Skype-to-Skype voice calls, free instant messaging and premium mobile phone or landline calls...

Skype 3.0 beta can be downloaded here, or here via your mobile browser.

Skype has released a new Skype Mobile beta, which is now compatible with Android, and available for over 100 Java-enabled phones from LG, Motorola, Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson. The new app includes such features like support for Skype-to-Skype calls, instant messaging, Skype calls to landlines or mobile phones, receiving calls to your online phone number on Skype and see Skype contacts online/offline status.

Skype client for Windows Mobile has been updated yesterday. The new v2.5 Beta reportedly improves sound quality and provides more stability. It's time to update your old 2.2.0.45 version, if you still haven't done so.

The FCC has approved the new Amoi INQ1, a phone designed for those who love social networking. It integrates last.fm, Skype and Windows Live Messenger, and comes with a 2.2" 262k color QVGA display, HSDPA 3.6 Mbps and a 3.2Mpix camera.

Skype comes to Android thanks to iSkoot, a VoIP application that will soon be available in the Android Market and will allow for skype-to-skype voice calls. More details on this program can be found here and here.

Skype has launched a new beta that adds support for 30 new handsets along with number of bug fixes and improvements. The complete list of newly supported models is provided below:

• Motorola v6maxx, L9, Razr2 V9;
• Nokia 5310, 5610, 6300, E61, N70, N72, N73, N76, N78, N81, N82;
• Samsung G600, G800,

Today Skype has released a new version (2.2.0.45) of its client compatible with Windows Mobile 6.1 OS. However, apart from that there seem to be no improvements over the last build...

Anyway, if you own a WM 6.1 based handset, you can download the Skype 2.2.0.45 here.

The upcoming Skypephone IM2 (until now it was known as S2) from 3 has just passed the FCC and apparently will soon be available for purchase. Unfortunately, we don't know when and where exactly, but the FCC approval means we can expect it in the U.S.

The device will use HSDPA data network instead of GSM to help users save on voice calls. You know, that's how Skype works.
