From the skype site,

"Call phones and mobiles

The cost of a local or national call on your mobile (or use your inclusive minutes), plus our SkypeOut rate to the destination you’re calling

Call Skype contacts

The cost of a local or national call on your mobile (or use your inclusive minutes).

IM and being online

There’s a data charge from your operator. A person with 20 contacts, who’s online for 1 hour, IMs for 10 minutes and has a 20 minute call each day will use about 1MB of data per month. The more data you use, the higher your charges may be.

Receive calls from Skype contacts

If you receive a call in the UK, you pay our SkypeOut rate for a call to a UK mobile. If you're in Estonia, you pay our rate for a call to an Estonia mobile and so on.
Receive calls to your online number

Same as above"

So it is not the same as the desktop client.
