Nokia MWC

Nokia really seems to have done a great job with the new services, announced at the MWC, as it has also unveiled a newly-formed partnership with Skype. Skype will be first incorporated into Nokia Nseries phones, starting with the N97. It has become clear that Skype will be closely integrated with N97’s address book, enabling presence (shows when your Skype contacts are online), as well as instant messaging. N97 users will also be able to take advantage of 3G and WLAN in order to make and receive free Skype-to-Skype voice calls, in addition to low-cost calls to landlines and mobile devices.
