The Skype folks have certainly been busy with Windows Mobile development after what seemed like years with little evolution on the platform. They have informed us that Skype version 3.0 for Windows Mobile is now available and this new version adds two cool new features.
The best one in my book is the ability to share files with chat-mates, something that Skype has long been able to do on other platforms. This makes it a simple effort to send files from any Windows Mobile phone to any Skype contact on any platform. The other new feature is the ability to send text messages using Skype’s low rates thus avoiding roaming charges when abroad.
