Skype and 3 team up for mobile internet phone

October 12th, 2007 | Uncategorized

Filed under: Cellphones
Details are pretty light on this one, but Reuters is now reporting that Skype and UK cellphone operator 3 are currently working on a new handset that promises to “make Internet calls mobile.” According to Reuters, the phone is expected to “work in the normal way,” but also include an option to let users bypass all those hefty cellphone charges and contact other Skype users directly in order to save a few bucks. We assume that means Skype will operate over 3G data, although that’s yet to be confirmed by either party. We should know more soon enough, however, as the handset is apparently on track to be released before the end of the year.
