The software solution will become available as a free download for RIM's users.

Skype's chief operating officer, Scott Durchslag, is reported to have announced in a press conference on Tuesday at the CTIA Wireless 2009 show in Las Vegas that the company intended to come to the market with a native application for all major smartphone operating systems, and while other platforms had been covered already, the only one to be left behind was the BlackBerry.įrom what we've heard, the company will release a Beta version of the application in May, which will be available for BlackBerry Bold and BlackBerry Curve smartphones, with support for other BlackBerry handsets slated to come later during the ongoing year. While a version of the software solution was recently announced to become available for Apple's iPhone, now we learn that another version is to be released for Research in Motion's devices as soon as May.

It seems that BlackBerry users will soon have yet another popular application available for their devices, namely Skype.
