Last February, we can read between the lines of a set of Skype and the announcement of Verizon, to deduce that the Skype application for BlackBerry coveted was work. Tuesday at CTIA 2010, the two companies came to the podium with a release date difficult to share.Fortunately, some Blackberry – and users of Android – just wait until Thursday to get a new mobile Skype on their smartphones.

We say “some” of phone owners, not “all” because during its launch Skype Mobile is only available for new devices on the Verizon network: BlackBerry Storm series, the Curve series, and the Tour, and the Droid Motorola, HTC Droid Eris, and devour Morotola (which also launches on Thursday in the Verizon store.) Skype and Verizon plans to extend the application of models of mobile phones and other platforms in the future.
We have an opportunity to show the Skype phone after the news conference. Skip features, Skype is thinner than other mobile platforms, adhering to the bare essential calls and instant messaging. One application allows you to import contacts from address book in your home more. In addition, the application displays the history of Skype mobile and can update the situation and mood of transmission to others. However, you’ll be disappointed if you are looking for gifts such as file transfer, SMS and Skype voice mail support at this time.

Skype is free mobile to Android and BlackBerry phones with free Skype to Skype will not escape the charge or the minutes. You can always buy Skype credit for international calls to landlines and mobile phones. Users of BlackBerry phones from Verizon phone supports Skype to see pushed to your download folder, but you can also download the Skype application http://skype.com/go/mobile or text (2255). The users can find Android Skype Mobile on Android Market Thursday.
