iSkoot for Skype: v1.1 for UIQ 1.1.60

With our enhanced feature set, you can easily place SkypeOut calls to anyone in your phones general address book, and enjoy cool new Skype chat features like emoticons and multi-party chat. What really sets iSkoot apart: unlike other mobile Skype apps, iSkoot is a thin-client - so it takes up minimal memory on your phone and won’t drain your battery power. iSkoot routes calls over the voice channel to offer the highest sound quality.

Major Features:

1. Making a Skype-toSkype call: When you call a Skype contact on your mobile phone, it costs the same as making a local call so depending on your mobile calling plan, normal airtime charges may apply. Once you’re connected to the Skype network, your call works like a regular voice call from your phone. (iSkoot does NOT connect the call using the cellular data channel.) iSkoot also uses a small amount of data to keep the status of your contacts updated.
2. Making a SkypeOut call: When making a SkypeOut call using iSkoot, the same basic costs apply as making a Skype-to-Skype call noted above (which means that normal airtime charges may apply, plus some data to keep contact status information updated). In addition, Skype charges the applicable SkypeOut connection rates to connect the call to a regular telephone line, just as they would if the SkypeOut call originated from your PC.
3. Receiving a Skype Call: When you receive an incoming Skype call on your mobile phone, the same basic costs apply as making a Skype-to-Skype call noted above (which means that normal airtime charges may apply, plus some data to keep contact status information updated). In addition, your SkypeOut account will be charged at Skype’s call forwarding rates for mobile numbers.
4. Using Skype Text Chat: When you use Skype text chat on your mobile phone, the service uses your data connection to exchange messages with your chat buddies. iSkoot’s data use is fairly small for the moderate user, but even so it ís best to contact your service provider to determine the best data plan for your individual needs.
