The new Skype app has been released for Android (2.1 and higher).  The only bummer here is that in the US you still need two apps.  The new app allows you to make Skype calls over WiFi, but it does NOT let you use your 3G connection.  At least for now, you’ll have to keep the old “Skype Mobile” app around to make calls on the cellular network.

Chrome to Phone sends webpages, text, driving directions, and phone numbers from your PC to your Android device with one click.  Nice!

I installed LauncherPro as my new home screen and WOW…it’s like a brand new phone.  The UI is more responsive, and you can choose the number of home screens (1-7).  Google should acquire this product and make it the Android default.

This app is pretty smart.  Even in this early experimental release it’s already an improvement from the built-in contacts search.  You can also use it to launch apps and browser bookmarks, which is a nice bonus.
