    Well the rumors were true. Skype really is coming out on Tuesday (it is already tuesday in Japan and they have Skype). The folks at PC World got a sneak peak so we already know what to expect.
    • Only works over WiFi
    • Calls to landlines 2.1 cents/min
    • Integrated with address book
    • Conference calling (if someone invites you)
    • Chat works over the cellular network
    • Missing SMS, video and proper conference calling, file transfer, and voicemail

      awsome... obviously at&t isnt going to allow it to work on 3G

      im sure they will improve it over time

      why wouldnt they let us use our plans that we have now which are $3.00 for unlimited calling to us and canada

      I'm in Australia and just searched for it in App Store on my phone and found it. No reviews yet and the strange thing is that it was posted up on App Store on the 23rd of March :-/

      I have installed it, extremely buggy at this stage, crashes after about 30 seconds every time. Even rebooted my phone, no effect. Hopefully they release a patch soon Will be great once it runs smoothly and over slower bandwidth.

      Not working on 3G? Worthless (to me at least)....

      Skype for T-Mobile G1 can place calls over 3G. did they have to remove that feature to comply with apples rules?

      it's on app store now, but yeah also very buggy, I'm using a 1st generation Iphone,
      and it crashes every time i tap on username to enter my details.

      any suggestions,
      I've tried re-installing and rebooting etc

      Thx tosbsas,
      disabled Clippy for "appstore apps support" and can login now. However tried "Test call" and quality is very poor and the app closes after 20-30 seconds. I guess i'll wait for update.

      Just won't download yet.
      Will edit when downloaded.

      yep, I had the same trouble. About 20 seconds then gone. I tried disabling clippy app support but the same happened. I will wait till it works before i re- install it.
