The company famous for its free calls on the Internet made another attempt at entering the cellphone segment last month, when it closed a deal with major US carrier Verizon Wireless. Ever since the start of the service back in 2003, Skype knew the meaning of the world “success” and now it has 520 million registered users internationally.

Nokia expects 1.5 million downloads a day from the Ovi Store, compared with 1 million from 3 months ago.
