There are special apps for Skype and MSN messenger for '3'. You need to
go to 'My 3', on a computer, (doing this from memory)... select 'My
mobile'. When you have the correct mobile displayed progress from there
and a green menu appears on the RHS of the display. Choose the bottom
option. That should take you to the downloads that you require.
I haven't actually done the downloads myself but a friend has a k530i,
not originally on '3', and needed to find the apps.

But if they don't list your phone you have to experiment and find out what
works yourself.

You don't need a special MSN messenger app because any normal one will work
fine over a 3g internet connection.

I have heard rumours that the special 3 app is actually a custom version of
the app I suggested.
I haven't experimented myself since I am now on Vodafone.

Thanks Brian. My phone is an HTC Touch Pro. It isn't listed, so I
tried the other HTC options that were listed (Hero and TyTn). But the
last option on the green menu in both cases was just to send settings
to my phone using a text message.

I guess iSkoot is going to be the way to do it. It depends on whether
the number they use is one that is included in my free calls allowance.
