Some of you may have seen update notifications in iTunes or on the App Store on your device, but for those of you who haven't - Skype 1.1 for iPhone and iPod touch is now available for download.
New languages
Skype for iPhone speaks your language - it's now available in Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Russian, Simplified Chinese, Spanish, Swedish and Traditional Chinese as well as English.
Voicemail and SMS
We've listened to your feedback - Skype for iPhone now lets you listen to your Skype voicemail while you're on the move, as well as send super low-cost SMSs to friends and family around the world.
... and more
Additionally, we've made some improvements to the look and feel, particularly when calling phones using the dial pad.
So - what are you waiting for? Download the update in iTunes, or launch the App Store on your device and tap Updates to grab the latest version.
Note: This version requires iPhone OS 2.2 or 3.0. If you're still using iPhone OS 2.1 or 2.0, you'll need to update to 3.0 in order to run Skype 1.1 for iPhone - it's free and easy to do. Skype for iPhone is not supported on devices running modified versions of iPhone OS.
