They hype on Skype for Java ME tech-enabled cell phones

The hype is starting to build on Skype for Java ME cell phones which is now in beta.

Skype on your Java ME phone

Here's a quote: 

 Following recent moves to extend Skype 
 conversations to a wide variety of new 
 mobile and wireless devices, Skype is 
 taking another major step as it 
 continues to merge its internet 
 communications software with mobile 
 phones.  The company released a beta 
 version of Skype for your mobile, a 
 mobile “thin” client that works on 
 about 50 of the most popular Java-
 enabled mobile phones from Motorola, 
 Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson.
Ma Bell won't like that--not being able to charge per minute for phone calls if you have an unlimited data plan. But, hey, most unlimited data plans have unlimited voice as an option nowadays too. 2-for-1. Pepper Brooks: "Usually, you pay extra for that kind of action, Cotton!"
