I have tried to down load the mobile skype but for some reason it will not load on to my phone. I have windows mobile 5 and enough memory and all but cant get it on their.

In the true north we pay to much for cell phone service and I'm looking at using the hot spots for my out going calls.

It seems like it would be way cheaper to skype out and call local than call local on cell.

I might just buy a skype hand held to carry in town.

I have always been curious about this. I would also be interested to see if anyone was able to successfully implement skype on their cell phone(s).

It can be done and works they have a mobile down load for it but I might have a problem with my phone. I think telus (local phone co) put something in the software to prevent it. Might dump stock software and up load new version from the net and try it. I just hate paying for incoming calls that chew up my minutes and it would be great to get free out bound calls.

Just purchased a majicjack. Their website is their name dot com.

The cost is $40.00 for the first YEAR, then 20.00/year thereafter. You read it right, the cost is for the whole year. If we are pleased with it, (so far, so good) will purchase an additional couple of jacks for the office for each computer. All you need is your broadband and the jack from them, any regular telephone and presto, you have a phone line for USA and Canada for cheap.

I do not have mobile web on my cell, but there should be some way to hook up the majic jack usb cable to your cell phone.....some type of adapter or other maybe??

Will have to check into it thanks Calif Drem.

The newer versions of skype are crippled to avoid the wrath of the cell co's. There is an older version of skype that will work.
