Skype Adds Video-over-3G Capabilities to Its IPhone App

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was Apple. And Steve saw that it was good. Apple controlled every app installed on its iPhone, sometimes known as the Jesus phone because it was so good. Then, a serpent came into the garden, and its name was Android, and Apple saw that it was time to alter the Word. Not much of an allegory, I know, but it is a holiday week. In fact, Apple and AT&T, at first, barred Skype from its phone; then, it restricted it to WiFi calls. Now, making free Skype calls over 3G networks seems to be a nod to the coming Verizon Wireless iPhone, and it will be a boon for users. Of course, it will still use up wireless minutes for those on a plan, and WiFi will always be better when you have that capability; but, it should be interesting whether Skype can keep up with the increased traffic, given the "software" outages last week.
