Skype 2.5 adds major Mac features to VOIP client
2007-02-02
Skype yesterday released version 2.5 for Mac and it is a winner. In addition to continuing its reign as the de facto VOIP client for the Mac and being an essential podcasting tool Skype has added several new features.
It features the ability to send SMS messages to any mobile phone in the world. Also, Mac users can now use Skype to hold conference calls with up to nine other people. Calls can be made to Skype contacts for free and to landlines and mobiles for a small fee, via SkypeOut. There is also a new birthday reminder feature.
Another major new (if hidden) feature is the ability to have high-quality (640*480) video calls with others - a boon if you are toting a MacBook/Pro with a built-in iSight camera.
It is a bit of a hack to enable (normal video calls are capped at 320*240) but according to Skype Garage the experimental feature can be had by adding two simple lines to a file called config.xml, which enables the high-resolution goodness.
Take that iChat!
