If you want a native application, try Fring, which just released a 'pre-release.' The skype subscription took a couple tries, but I am getting positive feedback (http://www.modmyifone.com/forums/showthread.php?t=117521&goto=newpost) that it works well.

From the fring pressroom:

About fring
fring® is a mobile internet community and service that enables its users to talk, chat and interact with other fringsters and their internet communities from their mobile phones.

fring users are able to communicate with each other and with contacts from Skype®, MSN®, Google Talk™, ICQ, Twitter, Yahoo!™ & AIM®

fring was “soft-launched” in February 2007 and already enjoys users worldwide in over 180 different countries.

fring operates on the Voice over Internet Protocol (mVoIP) and is optimized for the 3G network and therefore provides a continuous call connection. fring is 100% free to download and use, with no subscription costs; consumers simply pay for the data they consumer under an existing data plan with their network operator. Completely PC independent, fring requires no additional hardware and no location limitations.

For quick reviews see here (http://www.appleiphoneschool.com/2008/04/15/fring/) and here (http://www.tuaw.com/2008/04/15/fring-voip-on-iphone-live-blog-tryout/).

Wow, I can't wait for fring to come out. I use to use it back on my old Treo and I loved it. This would be one of the greatest apps that could possible come out with the 2.0 firmware.
