SkypeIn Reaches Beta Users

Posted by Hemos on from the skype-to-the-island-skye dept.

galdur writes "Skype quietly released a new 1.2 beta featuring SkypeIn (in US, UK, France, China & Hong Kong), central voicemail (for those not using the free 3rd party SAM or Pamela), and finally centralised contact list. SkypeIn is the opposite of the company's SkypeOut, allowing you now to receive normal telephone calls through Skype."

    There should be a nice page explaining why Skype is bad (proprietary), and the advantage of using open, inter-operable solutions (SIP).

    Ok, I know, they may not be on par yet with skype, but still, seeing so much enthusiams for skype on /. is paradoxal ...
