It has emerged that Skype could soon be offering a range of services for mobile phones, following the launch of new tests.
The company has released a test version of software that is currently undergoing trials on a range of Java-enabled mobile phones and devices and according to the company could lead to the expansion of its offerings.
However, although Skype's general manager of mobile and hardware devices Gareth O'Loughlin, believes the move is a positive step he also warns that there is still work to be done before the product hits the market, ZD Net reports.
"These are still the early days for making Skype calls on mobile phones, but we've already made great strides in this space," he said in a recent statement.
It is reported that handsets from Motorola, Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson are currently being tested with the new Skype application.
