Skype is not open source.

Skype is supposedly being developed for the N800. Nokia made a big deal about it a while back. Of course these days, I believe it when I see it and I haven't seen it yet.

The program and librarys would have to be compiled for the specific processor or run in an emulator.

People forget that mobile devices like the N800 use a different CPU, so it's not enough that it's the same OS (e.g. linux) unless the CPU is the same too (in this case: ARM != iA32). In other words, we don't need a 'linux version', we need a 'linux little-endian ARM version'.

OYE!!!
I thought there was really hope that I'd have Skype on my N800 in time for my Asian trip.

This whole "Skype-thing" makes me very disappointed. I've had my N800 for 4 months now and even though it is a nice little piece to surf around with, I'm very disappointed not getting Skype on it yet. I thought it would take maybe 1 or 2 months before it was released, but obviously I was very wrong. I'm also disappointed of N800s poor video support. Even with the new update of the OS it won't run smooth. Not what I expected from Nokia.
