Skype for Three?

[evoman]

I'm hoping to use an Android device on the Three mobile network and would love to get a Skype client to work with their free Skype. Any ideas?

Hi, I am on 3 and have just got the HTC Hero, and downloaded the Skype for 3 but it didnt work, so I downloaded Skype from the market place and that works =)

I would assume that the market place version uses call minutes and is not free? My understanding is that the 3 version is set up to use their own private call routing and so regular Skype is not free. I thought that Three was selling the Hero and had Skype available for it. I don't have a Hero and so I am hoping to get a version that might work on any Android phone and allow for the free Skype calls.

I think 3 has ended its Skype service in HK, which I guess may extend to other countries as well. When I was using it, it used the 3G network and basically dialled out of the phone through a local number.

You can use the standard Skype app for android which would use up your wifi data package or utilise the wifi network.
