VoIP service Skype has updated its Android apps to include video conferencing over 3G and Wi-Fi networks.

The new features include the ability to make changes to personal details, use the dial pad to make-calls, see the balance of Skype Credit and make video calls.

The software is available on Android phones running version 2.3, and with front-facing cameras: this means it’s it can be downloaded on the HTC Desire S, Sony Xperia and the Google Nexus.
