There's no Skype yet for Palm Pre!

With 1.4, the video recording app has mic access, so it's only a matter of time for developers to get it. |

However, I can answer your second questions regarding charges from how my Skype account worked with my previous phones. You will be charged significantly for international data roaming if you use the 3G data network in another country (if the service is compatible). You would be better off using WiFi. If you use WiFi, there won't be an additional charge. Hope that helps. nb |

thanks for al the responses but I downloaded "s4palm.com" yesterday assuming that this was the same as a skype platform. Are you indicating that this cannot be used for international calls?
Check this out at "weboshelp.net/all-webos-news-articles/768-webos-voip-clients-come-to-the-palm-pre" and let me know your thoughts. Thanks |
