Skype app available for Symbian Belle

If you happen to rock to a Symbian Belle device from Nokia, then be prepared to whoop for joy – it seems that the Skype app has been updated to reflect the Belle user interface, while the feel as well as overlal performance has been improved. Majority of the core voice calling and instant messaging functionality of Skype has also been thrown into the mix with this new Symbian client, making it an instant “must have” app for those who use Skype frequently.

Skype for Nokia Belle (version 2.1.23) weighs in at a 6.9MB download, where you can pick it up from the Nokia Store. After installation, you are required to enter your Skype username and password. All your contacts and current instant messaging conversations will be downloaded automatically, while names and numbers can also be imported over from the Contacts application just in case you want to give them a ring. For those who have already installed the updated Skype app for Symbian Belle, how did your experience go?
