iSkoot: Skype on your mobile phone

by Jayvee on January 6th, 2007

iskoot.jpgHere is a way to turn your mobile phone into a Skype phone. By using the very cheap GPRS rates from your regular cellphone, you can call any computer - or anyone on Skype anywhere around the world. And did I say it was cheap?

Here is the description from the company’s website:

  • With iSkoot, a mobile phone user gets the power of PC Calling as part of their normal communications capabilities. iSkoot eliminates the need for special hardware, headsets, microphones, broadband connections, USB phones and even PCs, and consumers don’t have to go looking for a WiFi hot spot.
  • Our iSkoot phone application, a free small and simple piece of software, and our network gateway connect your voice network with a PC-PC network so that you can use your Internet phone service from a regular cell phone. Everything you can do with online phone services, you can now do on your cell phone powered by iSkoot.

Will this application endanger the Skype Phone? Well not really, since Skype phones allow free calls as long as you’re in a WiFi hotspot. But the app is good to have around your phone regardless. It’s all a matter of having many many options.
