Remember, the v1.2 beta is still active, so be sure to read <a href="http://share.skype.com/blog/products_and_services/announcing_skype_for_ppc_1.2_%e2%80%93_beta_version/">this post</a> if you're interested in participating.

no VGA support no install.

i couldn't even sign in to my skype account last time I installed it on my PPC

its a good concept though. Hope they pay more attention to it.

no VGA support no install.

It runs fine on VGA devices (for the most part), but it uses the pixel doubling effect, so it's a bit sluggish at times.

I decided to try out skype for PPC

sound was good everything was perfect.

If you like it, you should also install Skype for Windows (http://www.skype.com/products/skype/windows/) (provided you have a microphone). It works well when you're at a desk, so you can leave the Pocket PC version for when you're on-the-go. :)
