Subject: Game changer: Verizon Wireless okays unlimited Skype over 3G
By Tim Conneally, Betanews
At a joint press conference at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona today,
Verizon Wireless and Skype announced that Verizon's smartphone customers will
be allowed to place and receive unlimited Skype-to-Skype voice calls. The
voice-over-IP chat client is one of the world's most popular ways of
connecting, especially for the purposes of international voice and video
conferencing.
When the service opens in March, nine phones will support unlimited
Skype-to-Skype voice calls, instant messaging, and international calls at Skype
Out rates. These will include: BlackBerry Storm, Storm2, Curve 8330, 8530, 8830
World Edition and Tour 9630, Motorola Droid and Devour, and the HTC Droid Eris.
"For Verizon Wireless' more than 90 million customers, Skype mobile adds great
value because we're effectively giving customers with smartphones and data
plans the option to extend their unlimited calling community to hundreds of
millions of Skype users around the globe," said Verizon Wireless Executive Vice
President and Chief Marketing Officer John Stratton in a prepared statement
today.
