Skype Beta for Windows Mobile

Geekzone points out that Skype 2.2 Beta for WM is out, finally adding support for Smartphone Edition phones. Not supported, apparently, is the square screen on my 750v. Curses! In any case, there's some fancypants new features in there. I've gone back and forth on Skype - I'm tempted to get myself a full account and start moving my telephone communications over to it, but I don't know if I'm ready to untether myself quite that much yet.

Check out the download here, hopefully your device is supported.
