Skype may announce new video calling service at upcoming CES

Luxembourg-based VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) provider Skype reportedly posted a teaser message which recommended that the company could announce a video calling service for Apple's iPhone at January's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

Skype's potential service will be competitor to Apple's FaceTime video-chatting service, which is currently available via WiFi only.

Unlike Apple's FaceTime video-chatting service, Skype's video calling service would be made available via both 3G and Wi-Fi.

The support document stated, "Though the iPhone application is fully compatible with the iPad, we're after all always striving to bring the best to our Skype users, which is why we're developing a Skype application designed exactly for the iPad."
