This is so confusing! I went to the page, entered my mobile number and no download happened. I got a link to the very page I went to in the beginning: www.skype.com/mobile. Tried to click on "download Skype" link and it took me to the "enter the phone number" form. Where is the download link?

Any particular reason why Skype is refusing to develop an App for BlackBerry? There was a Blog entry back in Feb/Mar 2009, but nothing came out of it.

Currently, there is a $40 app for BB from a 3rd party company, which I think is not fair for Skype users or the Skype company, unless Skype is getting a profit share from them.

Please develop a skype client for blackberry. It is one of the most powerful platforms out there and it would indeed help a lot of people.
Thanks

@rajiv_gunja our BlackBerry app is in private beta testing right now, and we’ll release it to the public as soon as it’s ready. Watch this space!

Thank you. Any chance I can get an invite to beta testing? I have a BB storm-1. Thanks for updating.

Hi,
I just wanted to download skype for my cell phone as well. Surprisingly there does not seem to be a skype version for N97 mini. I hope I am mistaken and you can send me a link. My wife has a Nokia 5800 and this is not part of the list either. Thanks for any help.
Cheers,
Remo
