No mobile Skype anymore - General Topics

I searched on xda but didn't see if someone already posted this. If this is already old news, please delete this thread. Thanks.
Skype is no longer developed for Winmo: http://www.skype.com/mobile/
They are introducing Blackberry and Android: http://www.skype.com/mobile/reminder/
It still works on my HD2 though.

Skype 3.0 for Windows Mobile
Skype 3.0 for Windows Mobile can be found at the following link: http://www.skype.com/download/skype/windowsmobile/
There is no mention of Windows Mobile on the homepage; however Skype did sign a contract with Verizon Wireless and that is now up on Skype's web page. I can tell you it works on my Touch Pro 2 with Wi-Fi. I hope this helps; take care!

I've not got this working with my wm6.1 ipaq ppc (classic) with widcomm stack.
please let us know if you get it working with your device (hw&sw versions) and any comments.
Also if you find any gadgets that you recommend let us all know.
Samsung i600 is working perfectly, but there are very few sideshow gadgets and most of them suck .
The mobile app says it is a beta and has expired, does anyone know if there is a newer/better version out there I've been looking all over the place and cant find anything? Am I the only person who thinks sideshow is really cool???
i am also getting a similar message that beta has expired ... any help
Just found this

Ive had the cab for this for ages, but only recently have I had vista to be able to use it.
Ive had it working well on:
HTC S710 VOX
HTC P3450 ELF
HTC P3450 ELFIN
Doesnt seem to work on my Polaris, doesn't seem to save my user name. Always get asked to "Selected Current User" and can never turn on any gadgets in windows. Anyone else with the same problem?
thats what the expired cab did for me. have you uninstalled the old one and reinstalled the new one?
i'm using it for the media centre gadgets, but i have TV Pack 2008 and they dont work with it :-(
i've been waiting years for sideshow and now the thing i want to use it with isnt suported

yeah tried to install the new one but doesn't work. Apparently Microsoft are working on this but I don't think they will release anything soon. They stated that "We have seen this issue, and are investigating the cause. It seems to be sporadic." Testing this on Windows 7 beta so don't know whether this is the cause or whether it might be the ROM I am using.

iPhone like Applications

Ok. I have been a Windows Mobile user since the original Cassiopeia (1998). I currently have the fuze and my wife has an iPhone. The iphone has a lot of cool apps that I would like to see on the Windows Mobile platform. However, i cannot find anything that come even close. I don't know if I am not looking well enough.
Some Apps:
Sportacular, iSports, MLB at bat on iPhone - For windows mobile we have GetSportz which is pretty rudimentary.
eBay on iphone - all we have for Windows mobile is the formatted web page?
iFareFinder, Flight tracker on iPhone - ? Windows mobile.
I am not an iPhone fanboy. I need Windows mobile, but where are all the cool apps?
I go to Fuze Mobility. they have cool links there
Looky here...

Unfortunately,Viesulas Skype for Windows phones are no longer available for download from Skype.
Skype has chosen to withdraw Skype for Windows phones because they want to offer their new customers an improved mobile experience – much like the version that has proved so popular on the iPhone, and which is now available on Symbian phones.
Skype's aim is providing a rich user experience that allows users to enjoy free Skype-to-Skype and low cost calls as easily on the move as users do with thier desktop.
Skype felt that Skype for Windows phones were not offering the best possible Skype experience.
Therefore skype will not function on any wm operating system.
​PS Viesulas even if you install the skype.cab on your touch2 wm6.5 skype will still not fuction, as they have discontinued to offer thier service on the wm6.5 os.

Dude I'm a heavy skype user. Skype it's working on my touch2, TYTN II, Excalibur and HD2 all of them runnning WM 6.5 I can guarantee that. Service is still good and running normally for WM platform, the only thing not available is the cab download anymore on the skype website.
