Hack brings Skype to iPhone - Andrew Charlesworth, vnunet.com
The geek dream of circumventing the AT&T contract and running Skype's VoIP telephony service on Apple's new iPhone has come a step closer. A complex partial workaround has been published in a blog by Tom Keating, founder and chief technical officer at TMC Labs. The workaround requires a broadband-connected PC which is remotely controlled by the iPhone, software downloads and a degree of technical competence, all of which tick the boxes of true 'geekdom' in that the esoteric nature of the fix makes it unlikely to have mass appeal.
