There's no news yet, but N800 owners who aren't super-psyched about Google Talk or that open-source voice chat software can soon celebrate the arrival the mother of all voice chat, and yeah, I'm talkin' 'bout Skype.
Our apologies to Kevin Tofel, whom we forgot to credit for the photo.
Thanks to Dan from tabletblog.com for the email.

holy crap!!! does that mean all you have to pay is online data charges??? you can use skype on that thing!!! amazing!!! i love it i love it!
how about the 770?
Gizmo's fine by me. Say "No" to proprietary voice chat.
awesome can't wait to download it, to bad i don't have as much use for skype since u have to pay for skype out calls now
I can't wait to try this through EV-DO. Suck it, Verizon.
I'm with Potentato... I hope they support the 770.
The Skype thing has been know for the last 4 months or so :) The release date was also set by then to the middle year or more specific end of june.
SWEEET... I've got the N800 and I use Skype at home anyways. This is a much-appreciated bonus.
Skype on a Nokia, great, but can you guys get it to work on your Blackberrys?
Hmm no Skype for BB's I hear you cry!
But with the magic application of spoonr (www.spoonr.com) I was able to hook into my desktop pc with the bb8100 peral and make a Skype call over GPRS :)
Awesome, sound quality was spot on too!
Did I tell ya that spoonr rocks my world?

Been using Skype for gaming of all things.
Works great.
770 support is sorta dead. there is a "hacker edition" out there but updates have been sporadic and not very often. there's not even a current version of the OS2007 which is on the n800 for the 770
JKOnTheRun broke this story and that's their image. Don't forget to credit it ;)

Don't forget to watch as I am checking every 4-6 hours for the maemo firmware site to update and will have a Skype test call as soon as it's posted.

I was totally wrong about the photo credit. I don't know where this photo came from but it is ever so slightly different from the one Kevin took.
I sincerely apologize, Gizmodo and Kevin, for this.
hey now that it's out could someone compare this with the iPhone? I know the n800 isn't a phone, but I'd love to know how the browsers, multimedia functions, and multitasking abilities compare. ...trying to decide.
