Free mobile calls forever, so say 3

UK network operator 3 is making a big thing of their "Free Calls Forever" offer, so we thought we'd give you the low-down.

The offer relates to the use of Skype, the voice-over-Internet service. There are currently over 400 million Skype users worldwide, and 3 is now offering free calls and instant messages from many of their handsets. The offer is available for contract users as well as Pay-As-You-Go users (without the need to top up).

Free Skype-to-Skype is available on twenty phones in the the 3 portfolio, including the Nokia 6120, the Skypephone S2, the INQ1, the SonyEricsson G502, the SonyEricsson C510, the Samsung Tocco Ultra, Samsung i8510, the Nokia E71, E63 and the N96.
