Hot Off The Press! Skype Mobile is coming! (To Verizon Mobile, at least)

Verizon recently announced that it has partnered with Skype and said that it will be bringing Skype Mobile to a number of its smartphones in March. The app will work on Verizon’s 3G smartphones with data plans that will include the Storm, Storm2, 8330, 8530, 8830 and Tour 9630.

Features include:

• Make and receive unlimited Skype-to-Skype voice calls to any Skype user around the globe on America’s most reliable wireless network;
• Call international phone numbers at competitive Skype Out calling rates;
• Send and receive instant messages to other Skype users; and
• Remain always connected with the ability to see friends’ online presence.

Skype Mobile for BlackBerry will be available starting next month.

Hopefully, we'll get a non-Verizon version for us normal people. Keep praying.
