Not so long ago we posted an article on Skype being preloaded on Nokia N Series mobile phones, well it appears O2 and Orange have got the grumps over it as they aren’t too happy about Skype taking a chunk of their voice revenues.
The word going round is that should the Skype Nokia deal go ahead then O2 and Orange will consider pulling their N97 stock and maybe even pull other Skype enabled Nokia handsets.
So we’ll just have to wait and see if Orange and O2 can force Nokia to forget preloaded Skype, or if indeed O2 and Orange stop selling Nokia mobile phones.
