savramesh 37 Report post Posted March 4, 2010 Source With this deal with Nokia, the company aims to capture more than 200 mln smartphone users worldwide We all know Skype for Symbian devices was already available for quite sometime now. What's new today is that Skype and Nokia have announced that the application can be now downloaded from the Ovi Store starting today. If you were not aware, Skype for Symbian phones allows users to make free Skype-to-Skype calls to other users anywhere in the world. The only thing you'd be paying for is for your data charges. This holds true for SMS messages as well. Apart from these, Skype can double up as an IM client and more importantly, as a VoIP phone whenever you need to call an international number. Skype for Symbian will run on any Nokia smartphone using Symbian ^1, the latest version of the Symbian platform. Skype will soon introduce this client to Symbian mobile devices from other manufacturers, including Sony Ericsson. According to Skype, with its association with Nokia, it aims to bring Skype access to more than 200 million smartphone users worldwide. The latest version of Skype for Symbian is compatible with the following Nokia touchscreen models: Nokia N97, Nokia N97 mini, Nokia X6, Nokia 5800 XpressMusic and Nokia 5530. The S60 Third edition handsets supported include Nokia E72, Nokia E71, Nokia E90, Nokia E63, Nokia E66, Nokia E51, Nokia N96, Nokia N95, Nokia N95 8Gb, Nokia N85, Nokia N82, Nokia N81, Nokia N81 8 Gb, Nokia N79, Nokia N78, Nokia 6220 classic, Nokia 6210 Navigator and the Nokia 5320.
