iSkoot — also known as Skype on X-Series for 3 — has just announced that their popular Skype client will be available on the recently released Sony Ericsson P1i Symbian UIQ 3-based smartphone. In order to enable Skype chat, Skype-to-Skype and Skype Out calls, the P1i owners will have to get iSkoot either via a direct download service through the “More Applications” icon in the Phone User Interface or from the Sony Ericsson website.
We’re still not sure whether iSkoot can use the built-in WiFi, or it keeps relying on the 3G network connection, which is not bad solution for those on an unlimited data plan…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
