After two days of trying to understand what I am doing wrong, and why I can't seem to download the skype client to my iPod Touch, I come across this link. Argg. No landline numbers, no skype to go, no skype on my 1st generation iPod Touch. That can't even use a mic. How is it that Microsoft, who single handedly helps billions of people feed themselves, can be picked on to the degree that they are but the phone companies in Canada get to run one of the most corrupt rackets in the world? 

Beats me. All I wanted was to use the instant messaging of skype. As in typing. Fail. I'm also getting conflicting stories from what the media is saying and what skype is saying. Do I believe Canadian media. Hell no.

I have found multiple work-arounds, here, here and here.

Update: None of those methods worked for me, this one did.
