INTRODUCTION

Overview

Welcome to the iSkoot User Guide. This manual provides step-by-step instructions on how to set up and use all the great features of your iSkoot software. Using iSkoot is easy—and with the help of this User Guide, you’ll have Skype™1 on your mobile phone in no time!

Once you’re set up with iSkoot, you can make and receive Skype calls at the push of a button, make low-cost long distance and international calls using SkypeOut, and add and remove friends from your contact list—right from your mobile phone. You can even set your own online status. Plus, with iSkoot’s new features, now you can send and receive Skype text chats too. Using iSkoot is as easy as using Skype on your PC: you can call any of your Skype contacts for free (mobile airtime usage charges still apply), and you can even place SkypeOut calls at the same great low rates. The big difference: now you can leave your computer behind! With iSkoot, you bring your Skype with you, so you can talk to anyone, anywhere, anytime using your internet telephony service.

What’s even better: With iSkoot, there’s no need for WiFi, cellular broadband, or any additional hardware. The iSkoot network and handset software are designed to work wherever your cell phone works! To learn more about how iSkoot and the iSkoot network work to bring you Skype on the go, please visit the Products page on our website, www.iskoot.com.
