iSkoot's Mobile Software Now Available Worldwide on Over 200 Windows Mobile Smartphone and Pocket PC Handsets |
|
iSkoot today announced the launch of their new iSkoot v1.1 mobile application for Windows Mobile handsets. The new mobile application supports all Windows Mobile 5 and 6 handsets, bringing its advanced feature set to over 200 additional devices worldwide.
iSkoot v1.1 for Windows Mobile empowers Pocket PC and smartphone community members to reach out to their business colleagues and contacts all over the world anytime, from anywhere, using Skype on their mobile handset. The iSkoot application offers push-of-a-button inbound and outbound Skype-to-Skype calling capabilities, as well as instantaneous Skype chat with advanced features such as Skype emoticons and chat template options.
iSkoot v1.1 also supports the SkypeOut(TM) feature, offering Windows Mobile users a unique way to place international calls to regular phone numbers at inexpensive rates. Users can easily manage their online presence on-the-go and view their contact lists anytime to check the availability of business associates, family and friends.
This newest release from iSkoot supports many of the highest-selling PDA devices in the global marketplace -- including the Motorola Q, Samsung Blackjack, T-Mobile Dash, Palm Treo 750 and HTC Wizard -- and compliments their existing suite of supported platforms, which already includes BlackBerry, Symbian S60, UIQ, Palm and J2ME. Windows Mobile is a leading OS in the global market, offered by 48 device makers and 125 mobile operators in 55 countries. Shipments are expected to surpass 40 million units worldwide by 2010.
"Extending support to the Windows Mobile device line has been a top priority for iSkoot," said Roy Erez, VP of Business Development, iSkoot. "Windows Mobile Pocket PC and Smartphone users demand top-of-the-line capabilities and convenience from their handsets, and we're excited to offer iSkoot's mobile Skype solution to further enhance their experience.
iSkoot's newest client empowers Windows Mobile users to manage their availability and enjoy mobile Skype chat and calling with the ease and superior functionality they've come to expect from their Pocket PCs and smartphones."
iSkoot utilizes the existing mobile network infrastructure to route Skype calls through the voice channel. It works without any need for PCs, special hardware, custom phones or WiFi hot spots. Using the iSkoot Mobile client, users on any cellular network have the ability to make Skype-to-Skype calls on their mobile phone at the same cost as making a local call (depending on mobile user's call plan, normal airtime and data charges may apply), and receive Skype calls at Skype's call-forwarding rates for mobile numbers.
