Skype for iPad has played continual app store hide and seek today but has now final made the decision to come out and play.

Skyping from an iPad is Easy, and the sound quality much better than from my laptop.

The application that “went live prematurely” has now returned, bringing with it a proper FaceTime alternative for Apple’s tablet.

This means you can now take advantage of full screen two way video chatter, send text messages or chat with Skype contacts on your iPad.

At present it’s voice only, but excellent quality. It was very useful to be able to make the skype call on the iPad while I worked on the laptop.

Major difference is that you can make video calls over 3G, rather than being limited to the Wi-Fi only action currently found over FaceTime.

Those who want to download the new application will find it live on iTunes now. 

Which leads me to think that the Skype app can also be installed on an iPad and iPod Touch.

Since the iPad and iPod Touch are “app” capable, all you need to do is install the Skype app and start making calls – that’s my theory anyway.
