Skype Unavailible for Droid 2.2?

[tyson184]

yesterday I successfully installed 2.2 on my Droid.

Today I went to download Skype and got the error message "Sorry, Skype is unavailable for your mobile. We add new handsets all the time so check back soon"...

it worked prior to the froyo - what gives?

So its just not out yet for froyo...
makes me want to go back to 2.1

Hello!!! Froyo's not even officially out for the Nexus, what do you expect? Be patient, sooner or later they will make it available. Of course, it should be backwards compatible, but since the droid is using a ported version of the pre-release Froyo, I'm not surprized.

Not the only app...

Running a Moto Droid, with the Froyo 2.2.

Missing:
Mobile Banking (Not the BoA one)
WeatherBug Elite
Skype
Police LED Lights

Just the ones I have noticed so far. Im sure there are more. Hopefully the devs will have the Froyo versions ready soon.

Considering 2.2 doesn't exist officially yet, I can imagine why.

This may have something to do with the fact that Skype made that ridiculous deal to be exclusive on Verizon for a while (even though you have Verizon).
