Just got an iphone 3g and i have just found this website.http://shapeservices.com/s4iphone/
has anyone else got skype on their 3G?
i have a friend in canada on skype that i could talk to for free or the $10 lifetime license. Or anyone else with skype for that matter.

I just visited that site it looks very interesting i have not yet downloaded the app, i currently use skype on my laptop so if i was to install i could by rights use on my iphone 3g, although i guess it would have to be connected to a 3g network or wireless network? i know in the UK the 02 package includes free 3g network so makes sense whereas here you pay through the roof for data per mb.

Cheers Rick

I have the iPod Touch and use Truphone, very similar to Skype but cheaper if you call mobiles and landlines, free if Truphone-to-Truphone. Obviously i can only get on in a wifi area, however i thoroughly recommend it. Program is free to download too

You can download Fring from the app store which is skype compatible. Wifi only though.

I had read that there was some serious in the talk to talk using Fring, almost 2 seconds, which makes conversation almost impossible, not sure if they have cured this now.
