Skype has announced that a version of Skype for iPhone which supports 3G calling is coming 'real soon now'

You may have seen other apps offering calls over 3G, but we're holding ours back for a little bit longer. Why? So that we can give you the very best audio quality we can. When our 3G-capable Skype for iPhone app is released, it'll let you make calls in wideband audio, giving you greater clarity and fidelity - because that's what you expect from Skype.

David Ponsford answers some questions about the upcoming app in the video below...

A little contrroversy.......I jailbreak my iphone 3G for 2 reasons, Cycorder and 3G for Skype. Theres an application for Cycorder in Itunes now (havent tried it yet). And if Skype allows 3G calls now, why should I keep on jailbreking????? Excuse my ignorance but what other cool apps am I missing with the jailbreak...

you can only make free calls to other skype members/users. otherwise you have to buy skypeout credits to call regular phone numbers.

I have used the unlimited United States and Canada plan from Skype for about $2.79 / month. Great service, especially if you have jailbroken 3gs and My3G installed on the iPhone.
