I'm ripping this off from a couple of Ho-Fo threads, but according to PocketPC Italia Skype works on the wizard:

From Ho-Fo based on translation: "Their only complaint is that it's not using the earpiece (used for telephone conversations) for the output, but the standard speakers as if it's standard audio output from a game or Windows Media Player, for instance...i.e. it's working like a speakerphone. Hopefully, they will resolve it in an upgraded ROM firmware revision, but the bottom line is that Skype will function on this 195MHz processor efficiently!"
