Skype For Windows 8 Goes Live October 26th

I’ve been running Windows 8 for more than a few months at this point, everything from the developer previews, the customers preview and now the retail version. One thing I’ve been missing is a metro version of skype. For me, it would be one of the more important pieces to the puzzle! Good news, a release date of October 28th has been announced. We also get a preview video, and from the looks of it, we are most definitely in for a treat!

Perhaps there could be some significance to this date and Windows Pone 8, as some rumors has pointed to Skype being integrated into the new Windows Phone 8 platform. Check out the video below.
