BARCELONA, SPAIN – Mobile World Congress

You can now use the Skype beta app on Windows Phones. The Skype team took full advantage of Windows Phone’s Metro design while building the app, says Rick Osterloh, vice president of products and design at Skype.

The Skype app on Windows Phones pivots around two key content areas: contacts and messages, where recent calls, IMs, and voice mails will be grouped together. Feedback on the beta version will be used for a full-featured version.
