Skype ships beta for MIDs

,----[ Quote ]
| eBay subsidiary Skype is beta-testing a "Moblin" version of its proprietary 
| VoIP softphone. Skype 1.0 Beta for Intel-based MIDs (mobile Internet devices) 
| is claimed to offer excellent, free video calling, thanks to the 
| high-performance processors and high-bandwidth 3G/4G/WiMAX wireless 
| networking capabilities MIDs are expected to have.

That's why all vendors should port to GNU/Linux. It's not just desktops, which
are a minority among devices.

Why eBay Should Open-Source Skype

,----[ Quote ]
| The great thing about opening up Skype is that it wouldn't affect its
| business model, which is already based on giving away the code, albeit in a
| closed form. Money could still be made from the outbound calls from Skype to
| ordinary phone lines. But freeing Skype completely would encourage wider use
| of both it and its protocols as an entire ecosystem grew up around them,
| leading to more users, and more opportunities to sell them subscriptions or
| pay-as-you-go plans. The only thing that eBay would lose are some of its
| problems....
