In case you missed it, there’s been some interesting news out of Skypeland this week: the introduction of Caller ID for SkypeIn numbers (for some countries) and the release of the final version of Skype 3.2 for Windows. What does this mean for gadget lovers? Read on.

Caller ID for SkypeOut

It’s certainly been a long anticipated feature to have the calls you make with SkypeOut appear as though they’re from your SkypeIn number. Now a server-side improvement is making it happen. It’s not worldwide yet; currently only SkypeIn numbers based in the UK, Sweden, Denmark, Japan, Hong Kong, Estonia and Poland are working. But negotiations are underway to make it work in more places. If you don’t have it yet, keep an eye on Your Account—you’ll see an option there when it’s enabled (read the official announcement from Skype blogger Jaanus here).

Skype 3.2 for Windows is official

The final version of Skype 3.2 for Windows has been released (get it here). The focus is on personalization and many features have been added, including:

• Saving a video snapshot as your photo
• Big improvements in audio
• Viewing your account and leaving call feedback from within the client
• Sending money
• Multi-device presence

Gadget lovers will appreciate multi-device presence. It may take a firmware update for some of your devices, but it means that if you’re logged into Skype with multiple devices (like your computer and WiFi phone), the status you set most recently will be synced across the devices. Pretty useful. You can see Jaanus’ announcement here.
