Yesterday we let you know that Skype announced the availability of Skype Mobile for Verizon BlackBerry smartphones. True to their word, the Skype Mobile page is now live. The following BlackBerry models on the Verizon network can finally enjoy an official Skype app:

• 8830 World Edition
• Curve 8530
• Curve 8330

Features include:

• Skype global rates
  The same Skype rates to global landlines and mobiles. No extra cost.
• Stop counting minutes
  Skype-to-Skype, IM and global calls from Skype mobile™ don’t use your wireless plan minutes.
• Free calls included
  The same experience on your Verizon Wireless 3G smartphone means free Skype-to-Skype calls and IM.

It’s a real shame this Skype Mobile offering is an exclusive deal with Verizon, but what can you do. If you have a BlackBerry and are on the Verizon network you can grab Skype Mobile from skype.com/m. For more info check out the Skype Mobile for BlackBerry page.
