As a Maemo/N900 user I‘ve gotten really accustomed to the built-in Skype support and it’s one of the most important features for me on the N900. When it came time to use the N8 I naturally wanted to install the native Skype application, since Symbian doesn’t have this functionality built-in. To my surprise there’ wasn’t any official support for these newer device. As result there were a few performance issues and a few glitches here and there.

Skype promised an updated version in December and now the wait is over: an optimized version for the Nokia C6, C7 and the N8. This means that they pretty much have what was Symbian^3 devices covered and we should see a version for the E7 once it’s out.
