Good news for people wanting skype on their MID.

Hopefuly there’ll be a way to install this on all Linux-baed MIDs but for the time being, it looks like it’s an option for OEMs.

Skype is working with Intel to deliver its application software for MIDs through Original Device Manufacturers (ODMs) and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs). By offering the Skype software on their devices, device manufacturers can provide consumers with an array of rich internet communications experiences – instant messaging, group IM, voice and video calls – right out of the box.
