That's why I use Fring instead on the iPhone. Which has been updated on the iPhone whereas it has not been updated on the N810.

It runs in the background - well, "serial tasking" not true multi-tasking though - and I get alerts when people send me a message via Skype and I'm on the phone... and while still on the phone and talking, I can switch to Fring and chat with that person in Skype.

True... once you switch out of the Skype app, you do get logged out. There's no way around it. But other apps do work when you switch out (see above).
