    doubt very much there is a mobile verision of skype, there is a pocket pc version i think but you would need a fair bit of free/cheap gprs to save money

    most T&C on free net (t-mobiles webwalk tarrif) outright ban it - hardly suprising seeing how much you could save on charges!

  • The only cost effective way (if you get a good deal on one of the following) is to use a BENQ P50 or P51,N80,E61 or one of the newer Orange SPVs,only catch being you'll have use Skype over an open WiFi network either yours someone elses.If you use GPRS over the network you'll pick up a bill.
