Skype compatible phones are listed at:http://www.skype.com/intl/en-gb/mobile/

Or you could set up a skype to sip gateway on a 3 phone
which would get around the skype out problem, and get you cheap calls

check out Graham's sitehttp://www.skypegateway.webs.com/

On the S2 Skype Out works for international calls - but you need Skype
credit. Skype Out calls to landlines are next to nothing. Calls to
mobiles are expensive and the quality not worth paying for.
