Need Skype App?? banned in Canada. I can help..

[luke]

The new Skype App was offered in the App store yesterday March 31st 2009,great I thought to myself great I have an Itouch and I have a skype account so now with my ear buds with a built in micophone and this new Skype app I can make local and long distance phone calls for very little money using my ITouch (that's right I said Itouch not IPhone)I already made a few calls on my ITouch to our friend Missy in Pittsburgh,PA. USA using an app called "Fring" but it was crap,I would have to try 4-6 times to Skype out or most of the time it just failed.
So I turned on my Itouch and hit the App Store icon ,entered Skype into the search area and hit the free button(grinning from ear to ear thinking to myself how much money I'm going to save not using my cell phone min. all the time)
Waiting,waiting suddenly a notice box pops up and tells me Skype App is not avaible in Canada ,what the F#*k???
Your kidding???I must have made a mistake typing in the word Skype,after 7 more failed attemps it finally sunk in.Canadiens got the shaft again from the big 3 Bell,Rogers and some other clown who's name escape's me at this moment. Guess their worried that Iphone users will use skype cheap and free calls instead of the $65.00 a month basic package that Rogers charges.Correct me if i'm wrong but Skype uses the Wifi part of the IPhone and Itouch not the 3G or cell part.Ok so what if a Iphone customer makes free WiFi calls from his home or hotspots instead of using his pricey min.hasn't he paid enough already just buying his Iphone and paying all the hookup fees and monthly charges,which
by the way are one of the most expensive in the world.

So for most of you that know me I repair computers,build websites ,into the latest gadgets and for 15 years have hacked anything and everything.I always buy something and the first thoughts going through my head is how can i make it better(or hack it) I've watched full lenght movies on my ipod nano years before the new nano video came out.

So as you guessed I found a way of getting the blocked Skype App onto my Itouch last night and happy to tell you it works great.

Forgot to mention for all you thinking I Jailbroke my Itouch the answer is No!!!! My Itouch is not hacked its like just like I bought it.
This ipod worked great right out of the box,the only hacking i do is to find free or discounted apps that appear and then disappear for a short time saving me tons of money.
If you would like to find out how I got the Skype App loaded and working(legally using a loop hole apple has) or you would like to make free or cheap phone calls from your Iphone or Itouch ,please register here and leave a reply to this post.
If you live in the States and the U.K don't worry just type Skype in the seach tab of your App Store icon and download it.
Its free and easy to register.
