Ovum MWC comment: Skype takes baby steps on Windows Phone

(PresseBox) (Köln, )
Nine months after Microsoft announced it was acquiring the VoIP provider, Skype announces its debut on Windows Phone, which Tony Cripps, principal analyst at Ovum believes fills one of the obvious application gaps on Microsoft's latest smartphone platform.

"At least in its initial guise, Skype for Windows Phone offers a fairly typical Skype experience on smartphones running as a standalone application. We expect this to change in future iterations with Skype becoming a more pervasive part of the Windows Phone software platform and experience, with its functionality integrated tightly with applications and services across the phone increasing its utility.
