        Many people use Skype instead of windows live and It would be great if Skype was incorporated into the OS as well as Facebook is!

        We are all waiting for skype, but Tango is definitely worth a try for audio and video calls over data (wifi or 3g). No need to be logged in (as skype) to receive calls!

        And not just an app! We want integration with the OS itself, in the Phone app. Handle it just like it was a number, like "call Skype" and "chat on Skype", as well as receiving calls to the phone like it was a phone call.

        Twitter, facebook, gmail integration.. I like it so much!!
        It will be great, if WP7 will support ICQ and Skype integration

        Skype integration would be great. I occasionally travel around and still want to stay in contact with my family when I am out of the country. I don't want to take my laptop with me only because I need Skype.

        Definitely needed, but I'm mostly interested in the ability to make phone calls over wi-fi networks. This should be fully integrated into the phone without any need for Skype credit. Ideally we'd see something like the best Google Voice applications.

        LOL, I cannot even get Mango on my Samsung Focus 1.4. Apple will be on iOS 1000 before you see Skype integrated properly. Ballmer should have spent $8 Billion on Apps.
