Heres the latest news from the PSN Team:

Skype (http://www.dcemu.co.uk/www.skype.com)is happy to announce that the Skype Video and Voice calling app for PlayStation Vita (http://eu.playstation.com/psvita/) (PS Vita) will be available for free from the “Media & AppsSocial” category of the PlayStation Store (http://eu.playstation.com/psn/store) from 25 April.
From then, you can enjoy Skype calls on PS Vita (http://blog.eu.playstation.com/tag/playstation-vita/). Now you can keep in touch with gamers around the globe while you’re on-the-go as Skype video calling is available for both the 3G and Wi-Fi models.
The Skype app includes free Skype-to-Skype voice calling, as well as high quality video calling that utilizes PS Vita’s front and rear cameras. The Skype app for PS Vita also features a “background mode,” which allows you to run Skype while you are playing a game or using other apps, so you never miss a call.* Plus, with a little Skype credit you can make low-cost calls to landlines and mobile directly from your PS Vita.

Additionally, PS Vita is equipped with a 5″ OLED touchscreen, dual analog sticks, precise rear multi-touch screen, two cameras and a built-in microphone that can be used with any Skype-certified headset.
