Skype in my iPhone has really been useful. I once called my daughter as I sat on a bench in Orchard Road in Singapore. There was a strong wifi signal that I picked up. You can’t use the Skype in Iphone if you are connected to a 3G network though. The calls are just as clear when I called using the wifi connection.

So what are the new features of Skype 1.1 for iPhone and iPod Touch?

1. Send low-cost text messages (SMS) to friends and family around the world using Skype credit

2. Allows users to listen to their Skype voicemail while on the move

3. Improved look and feel using the dial pad, while calling phones

4. Supports Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Russian, Simplified Chinese, Spanish, Swedish, Traditional Chinese and English languages

The latest updated Skype 1.1 for iPhone and iPod touch is now available for download through iTunes App Store on your device.
