wow... wait at least a day for an answer^^

Skype is preinstalled on all N900s except the ones in india.
The ones from india can install it on their N900s for free from the Ovi store, afaik.

Wow! I am totally floored with your knowledge on N900. I wish I could be just 10% as good as you ...

And sure the forum is previleged to have you hang around and help the N900-citizens.

Your faithful follower,

Add: My skype stutters alot with 2.5 or wifi, only 3.5 kind of workable. I read MohammadAG 's pulseaudio package, not quite sure whether that would be benefitial as some posted it could cost 'desync' and difficult to uninstall other than flash. I wonder you have any thought about it?
TIA,

Add: Well, the OP did wait... 9 mins including typing :)

I used it yesterday, still silky smooth. It depends on your 3G company I guess.

My phone warms up a lot using Skype though, I'm running it at 1Ghz

Dear Bun,

I also astonished with your words. I know that skype is pre installed on N900 but please go to skype website
www.skype.com
and check the one for N900. It will give you only one option .i.e to Buy It. My question was not as simpler as u took. I was wondering if there was a new version for skype 3.0 for N900 for which it asked me to purchase it. Thats why I asked.

Can you purchase that Skype? because 6 months ago, before I bought my N900 that "buy" button was already there, in Skype's page, but it doesn't gets you somewhere you could purchase it (nor download it). So I think Skype web page don't really know whats going on with N900 really or maybe here in Mexico that "article" is not available...

Skype.com says that it will be pre-installed on N900 and when you are going to buy it you are actually buying whole N900 and not client.
