Skype with Windows Mobile 6.x

Recently, I was trying to get Skype mobile to work on my HTC Touch Dual running Windows Mobile 6.1. Unfortunately, I found that Windows Mobile 6.x is no longer officially supported by Skype as the company claimed that they will be releasing a new version to support Windows Phone 7 instead.

After reading some posts from some forums, I realized that Skype mobile v3.0 was the last version ever released for Windows Mobile 6.x. I then searched and downloaded it from a blog post and installed it into my HTC phone. After the installation went successful, I was so excited to make a Skype-to-Skype call to my friend... Bang! Just 2 seconds after the call was established, my HTC phone hung...... Not responding... forcing me to pull the battery out and soft reset the phone.

Yet I never give up, and after many rounds of trial and error, I finally found that Skype mobile v2.2 works perfectly for my HTC Touch Dual runing Windows Mobile 6.1! For the benefits of others who wish to use Skype-to-Skype call over Wifi/3G networks and are using Windows Mobile phone, you can get the Skype mobile v2.2 here. Enjoy!
