WiFi PDA Meets Linux--Part 3
Using Skype

Rob Reilly
Friday, May 27, 2005 11:19:49 AM

Did you know that your new WiFi-equipped iPAQ can be used as a VoIP communicator? How about your Linux notebook?

The program that makes it possible is called Skype and it lets you call other Skype users over the Internet for free. You can also call regular phone numbers for very competitive per-minute rates.

As it turns out, Skype is available for both platforms and Windows, too. Although it's not an Open Source solution, it is freely available and fits nicely into our WiFi-PDA-meets-Linux bag of tools.

Join me now to discover how you can use the program on the iPAQ and a Linux notebook.
