SKYPE Releases PDA Software

The folks at Skype have officially released their Pocket PC software as of today.

Given my experience with FastChat and the XTEN Softphone on the Pocket PC, the one element I’m concerned about is the sound quality. Based on a few trials most people on the other end report that the sound is thin, or muffled. The mic on the Pocket PC is not telephonic grade. But, we’re early in the game.

I’ve always looked at SKYPE’s as the ICQ for VoIP and with this release ups the ante on disruption and indegestion level for carriers, telcos and PTT’s.
