Om Malik has a lot of praise for the new Skype client for iPhone which was released today in the US (and not yet in Canada) iTunes store.
Review: Skype for iPhone. Verdict: Awesome.
Apparently Skype for iPhone works on WiFi only and has almost complete desktop functionality except that multi-chat requires some window switching and video is not supported. These limitations are determined by the iPhone’s screen size and lack of video support from its camera not the Skype software.

Lifehacker also has news, Skype for iPhone brings reliable VoIP to your pocket, and has even started a rumour that the next Skype for iPhone version will be able to work over the 3G network once iPhone OS3 is available sometime in June.
Tidbits is also enthusiastic about Skype VoIP for iPhone.
