Apple users can download a public beta of Skype for Mac 2.6 which adds
goodies such as Call Transfer and the new Prime Premium Services.
The new version also includes reminders and notifications for
appointments, better audio quality and the ability to join in on Public
Chats.
This version also brings Automatic Updates to the softphone so that it
can update to a new version without having to visit the Skype website
and manually download a new version.
The feature, which debuts on the Mac version of Skype first,
enables you to transfer ongoing Skype calls to other users on your
Skype contact list. The new version also sports improved audio quality
and better stability.
The new feature list demonstrates the effort Skype has put into the
Mac client over the past nine months after spending most of last year fending off criticism
that it was neglecting the Apple OS X as the Windows version had
significantly better functionality including major features such as video conferencing.
You can download the public Beta software here.
