No one in their right mind will charge for Skype.

No one in their right mind would kill the Golden goose. Skype is a strategic acquisition and it makes no sense to arbitrarily limit a tool that runs on most platforms to a single one.

Have no doubt about this, Microsoft has the potential to give OTT
(Over the Top ) Players a major boost. I think mobile operators have a
reason to worry.

I also expect Gtalk to pick up rapidly as in no time M$ will lock up
skype for all phones bar Win7. It wont be free for long. I also expect
skype to be bundled with Bing, so google will have to respond to this.

It is not exactly good news, Skype will remain a technology solution
rather than a community tool eg Facebook or Twitter.
