Skype to integrate service in Nokia devices

Doing away with the need for a third party application, the deal will see proper integration of Skype within the Nokia N97, allowing users to see when friends are online and make calls by using the standard phone book.

Calls can be made using 3G or Wi-Fi, with free calls to other Skype users and low cost calls to landlines and other mobiles.

Skype has over 400 million users worldwide.
