Skype for the iPhone
A Skype client made especially for Apple's new iPhone has just been released. Om Malik has the news on this much anticipated release from SHAPEServices.SHAPEServices makes Instant Messaging applications for mobile devices, and now has built a Skype for iPhone website that allows iPhone users to visit and use Skype through Safari. The service is free for a limited time, upon which time users will have a one time fee to run the application. The iPhone application works the same way in which the PC software works. Users can IM and talk with other Skype users, as well as make and receive SkypeOut calls. Users also have access to see who is logged in and available.
Om has said that the application took a few minutes to set up and run, and is easy to use. If there are any DLSers that have tried this application out, please let us know your impressions.

The title should read "Skype for Mobile Phone Users." It's an app that works for all mobile phones just not the iPhone. But i guess thats the buzz word these days to generate hits.

Skype cannot work effectively through GPRS.
It needs 3G.

I don't think your call with through GPRS with this software. Instead, they seem to be using a call-back.
