14 DAY TRIAL // iSkoot, a well known provider of Web communication services for mobile phones, announced last week that its mobile application, 'iSkoot for Skype', was launching in the Android Market, Google’s new mobile application store. iSkoot for Skype is the first VoIP solution available in Google's Android Market.
iSkoot for Skype makes it easy and affordable for people to keep in touch with friends, family and contacts with an always-on-the-go lifestyle. iSkoot for Skype leverages the voice-optimized circuit-switched wireless networks of mobile carriers, allowing for full operation even without access to WiFi or 3G networks and ensuring the best possible call quality. Normal carrier voice and data charges always apply.
"We are honored to be the first mobile VoIP application available in the Android Market because we are dedicated to bringing carrier-grade Web communications services to mobile phones and platforms around the globe," said Jim Hudak, Vice President of Business Development at iSkoot. "iSkoot continues to work on delivering innovative products that give people a rich mobile experience so that they can cut the cord from their desktop", the representative added.
Available immediately for download in Google's Android Market, iSkoot for Skype also runs on nearly all major mobile platforms, including J2ME, S60v3, UIQ, Palm, Windows Mobile and BlackBerry. Android is an open and compressive mobile operating platform developed by an alliance of leading technology and wireless companies including Google Inc., T-Mobile, HTC, Qualcomm, Motorola, and many others.
iSkoot built significant momentum during the past year with the acquisition of Social.IM, the social network instant messaging client. That is the reason iSkoot can extend beyond mobile VoIP and create a compelling and valuable consumer solution.
