MCM informs - The original Skypephone caused quite a stir when it launched on 3 last year with its free Skype to Skype calls and tiny £50 PAYG price.Now 3 is back with a successor, the Skypephone S2. The newly printed spec list shows it has a 2.2in QVGA screen, 3.2MP camera, 50MB on-board memory expandable up to 4GB via microSD and will measure just 14mm thick.

The big draw, though, is that it will also get HSDPA and will come with modem drivers to use as a 3 mobile broadband dongle.

It’ll be on sale from 18th August for the slightly higher price of £69.99 - or ‘under £70′ as 3 puts it.
