Mobile Skype

October 5, 2010 12:27:12.000

Engadget Reports that Skype has found its way to Android, but with limits:

Finally, at long last, after so much waiting, Skype has made its debut as a full-fledged Android app. There are no Verizon-related limitations anymore, but Android Police reports that calling through the app is only available via WiFi, you can't use your mobile's data connection -- not yet, anyway.

I wonder how much of a hand the carriers have in that. When Skype first arrived on the iPhone, the same limitation was in place. It was lifted later, but there it is. I can't imagine that Verizon would be cheery about this.
