Ahead of Nokia and Microsoft's big event in New York today, where they will formally announce new Nokia/Windows Phone devices, Microsoft is making a little pre-show appearance in the form of?Skype, the once-upstart Internet voice calling company that it now owns. It was announced this AM that starting in October, users will be able to buy Skype Credits by billing them directly to their mobile carriers. The move is a sign of how Skype is getting even more integrated into the telco establishment -- which was once so threatened by the company that some mobile carriers even barred use of Skype on their networks. That has seen a big thaw in more recent times, with Skype working with operators like Verizon in the U.S. and Three in the UK. It's not clear yet whether this Skype news will figure in Nokia and Microsoft's announcements later today, but given that we are likely to see a lot more Skype integration into the Windows Phone system from here on out, I wouldn't be surprised if it did, even if indirectly.Source: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/Jvhu4q5kcqI/
