SkypeIn

Has anyone signed up for this yet? It's a Beta feature of Skype that allows incoming calls placed to a landline number that they allocate.

It states "Important! To be able to use SkypeIn and Skype Voicemail, you need to download and install the special beta version of Skype for Windows. SkypeIn does not work with Skype for Mac or Skype for Linux yet, but we're working on it."

I assume that the current PPC client will not work, but as they do not directly mention it I was wondering if anyone had tried it out yet and had any luck. I've emailed them but received a response that suggests they may not have the time to answer all questions.

Thanks for any info.

Nevermind, I looked further into the FAQ's and found this:

"Does SkypeIn work with all versions of Skype?

SkypeIn does not work with all Skype versions. In order for your SkypeIn number to work correctly please ensure that you are running the latest Beta versions of Skype for Windows (Version: 1.2.0.32) or Mac (Version: 1.0.0.15) or Linux (Version 1.0.0.20)

You can download the Beta Versions here.

SkypeIn is currently not available with for Pocket PC."
