Yesterday afternoon, we had the choice between going to Samsung&#8217;s press conference, Sprint&#8217;s press conference, or Skype&#8217;s press conference.

You don&#8217;t want the fabric of the universe to tear, do you?<\/p>\n<p>With that said, what they announced is still worth mentioning. <span id=\"more-28409\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Skype announced back in February that they&#8217;d be partnering with Verizon for a carrier-endorsed release of their mobile app, and they&#8217;re wasting no time bringing said partnership to fruition. Skype for Verizon will be launching on BlackBerry and Android handsets tomorrow, Thursday the 25th. <\/p>\n<p>Remember: this version of the app works over Verizon&#8217;s data network, saving you precious minutes without forcing you to find a WiFi hotspot. If you&#8217;ve never signed yourself up for Skype and tracked down all of your friends, now&#8217;s probably a good time.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/C5zbZ9oe-fz_3yoVserdUp5O-wQ\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/C5zbZ9oe-fz_3yoVserdUp5O-wQ\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/C5zbZ9oe-fz_3yoVserdUp5O-wQ\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~at\/C5zbZ9oe-fz_3yoVserdUp5O-wQ\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Mobilecrunch?a=q7SxgtAqShI:OUZQFbXRVsY:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Mobilecrunch?i=q7SxgtAqShI:OUZQFbXRVsY:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Mobilecrunch?a=q7SxgtAqShI:OUZQFbXRVsY:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Mobilecrunch?i=q7SxgtAqShI:OUZQFbXRVsY:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Mobilecrunch?a=q7SxgtAqShI:OUZQFbXRVsY:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/Mobilecrunch?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first day of CTIA was pretty crazy, scheduling wise.
