Skype on the iPhone

I would file this under nice to know vs. insanely useful. But… if you happen to own an iPhone and want to IM or call using Skype here is a service called IM + Skype (in beta) that let’s you do just that.

“IM+ for Skype is a web service that enables voice and text communication with other Skype users and provides cost-effective calling to landlines and mobiles. The application is designed especially for iPhone’s touch screen and complements the design and interface of iPhone.” Source: Shapeservices.com via fosfor

    If you can call for free with Skype, plus have simultaneous IM conversations, why wouldn’t that be insanely useful?

    I suppose because you’d be paying for each byte of data over your EDGE subscription, so it’s hardly free.

    Still, if you could get onto a local wifi network at the airport or coffee shop, and use Skype, that counts as a win.
