I got myself an iPad2 a few weeks ago, not that I need one, but it was a good deal and I wanted it somehow. I figured, if I don’t use the iPad for business, the deal is still to good to ignore and besides it makes a good gift too.
I decided to have an easy start and avoid downloading all the free apps. I got a few apps right away and skype for ipad was among it. Now you got to know, I never was very happy with the mobile version or using skype over wifi. The quality was never that great.
I had several long hour skype sessions using skype for iPad and I never had any problem during any of the calls. I was very impressed with my new iPad and how easy it was to finally be able to connect to clients and business partners where ever a good WiFi connection is avaliable.
Skype for iPad was a surprise. Connection was good and it does not need much battery. Sound and video go very well and chat functions very good too. The only downside is not to be able to share the desktop – a feature I use often.

You gotta try Fring and other apps on iPad. Although, Skype seems to be a good app, I still don’t recommend it to my friends
