From the GigaOM site:

Exclusive Heads up: A few months ago, I asked Skype CEO Josh Silverman when was he going to launch the iPhone version of the P2P voice and IM service that has now been downloaded more than 405 million times. He smiled and said, ‘Stay tuned. ‘ And so we did.

A tipster ” a very reliable one ” tells me that Skype is almost ready to launch that iPhone version, perhaps as soon as next week. CTIA Wireless, a large mobile industry trade event, kicks off in Las Vegas next Wednesday, so perhaps the announcement will be made there. I am working on getting more details, as well as screenshots of the service.

Just yesterday I was asking about where that native Skype app for iPhone is.  I ‘m so glad that had so much effect :) “ and I ‘m hoping Om Malik ‘s source proves accurate.  I know there are a number of apps that offer some Skype integration, but I ‘m very much looking forward to seeing Skype ‘s own offering for iPhone
