According to a post on GigaOM, a company in Germany has released a web-based Skype application. Instead of installing a software client on the phone, this site uses a call-back system to initiate the call. This means that you will still be charged for local cell minutes in addition to Skype charges.
At this time, the SkypeForIPhone site appears to be down. We have not yet been able to test the application and confirm that it works.
