"Niklas Zennstr"m made a name for himself

"Niklas Zennstr"m made a name for himself as cofounder of the Kazaa peer-to-peer (P-to-P) file sharing service. The entrepreneurial Swede has already made his latest venture, the Skype P-to-P voice service well-known on the Internet, but hopes to make it a household brand.


In recent weeks, the chief executive officer (CEO) of Luxembourg-based Skype Technologies SA has signed a string of deals with wireless handset manufacturers. Carrier Devices, for instance, has agreed to install proprietary Skype VOIP (voice over Internet Protocol) software in its i-mate branded Pocket PC phones with Wi-Fi capability. Motorola is also on board to integrate Skype software into a number of its new wireless devices. Another big-name manufacturer on the list is Siemens, which has launched a dongle that runs Skype on Siemens' DECT phones.

The company also recently launched the beta of its Skype-in service, which gives users a "real-world" phone number on which to receive Skype calls. "
