On Sunday, Skype 2.0 was launched for the iPhone 3G, bringing a long-sought feature to the table: making calls over 3G. By now, 5 million users have downloaded the application from the iTunes Store.
Unfortunately, the new feature came was accompanied by bad news after August 2010, Skype will start charging a monthly fee for the 3G calling feature on top of whatever fee you’re already paying your mobile operator for data transfer.
Skype promises the fee will be reasonable. “We’re not going to want to price ourselves out of the market. I can’t ignore the fact that consumers (currently) use us for free,” said Russ Shaw, Skype’s general manager for mobile.
