Nokia runs Skype on Wi-Fi and 3G - Suck on that iPhone!

nokia-n97-skype.jpgSkype and Nokia today announced that Skype will be integrated into Nokia devices, starting with the Nokia Nseries. The Nokia N97 flagship phone will be the first to incorporate Skype in the 3rd quarter of 2009.

Skype will be integrated into the address book of the Nokia N97, allowing you to see when Skype contacts are online and perform instant messaging (IM) or VoIP calls.

But here's the real kicker - the Nokia N97 will be able to use Wi-Fi and 3G to make and receive free Skype-to-Skype voice calls as well as Skype calls to landlines and mobile devices. The Apple iPhone on the other hand, restricts VoIP clients to just Wi-Fi VoIP calls and blocks 3G (data) VoIP calls.

My Skype runs great on 3G with my iPhone. Just jailbreak it.

my iPhone works well with skype and it can even works over EDGE .

Well I have had skyoe working on 3G and normal telephone network (without wifi) since June using VOIP on jailbroken device......so suck on that Nokia !!!!!

well when i had downloaded skype application from my n97, but i can't able to use properly. because when i was calling skype-skype, then also it is not working. Can u say, what is the problem?

jailbreak your iphone, and be happy. the most useless phone is yours alone,..
