It's currently free but the web site seems to hint that it will eventually be a subscription service.

Iskoot is ok. But Vox for Skype seems even better. I wanted to share with you this new app showcased on Skype extra galery. It called Vox for Skype. Apparently it works on all mobile phone (unlike eqo).it's free and easy to set-up.

Thanks
