Skype on a mobile phone...

[Ethan Hunt]

OK let me first say that I do not even try to explain nothing here. It's more as a hope that some1 might try and explain some things to me. I just got a Nokia N80 and started to mess around with the wireless connection and an idea popped up in my head. Haven't searched google yet, so if this has already been developed somewhere sorry. The thing I thought about is something like skype on the mobile phone. I mean, you have a mobile phone capable to connect to the internet from any open AP. If I had skype on that phone, doesn't that mean that I could possibly make phone calls to any1 that I want, and not even pay for the thing... It's like having a skype phone with you everywhere. Is a service like this already developed, and if it's not do you all think that something like this can actually evolve into something that might satisfy my expectations? Any replies are welcome since I really want to hear (read) every1's opinion. Ok I'm off 2 google 2 c what it sais about the subject. Thanks. V

EDIT: Ok now I searched google (just so I don't leave lame posts), and read skype's info on the matter and got some of the answers that I needed, but I still want to read about people' s opinion on what else can possibly be done with a mobile phone that can access an AP. BTW does any1 know of any open source projects like skype. I believe that as soon as the mass public get hold of a source code they make it better than skype, msn, yahoo or whatever put 2gether. Thanks.

Well on Skype's site in the download section there's Skype for Mobile, which appears to run on phones which use Pocket PC or Windows Mobile.
