The Nintendo DSi takes a step closer to becoming a mobile phone after Skype reps confirmed that a VoIP client is technically possible for the device. The company refused to confirm or deny the suggestion that it's actively developing for the device.
It's already possible to run VoIP software on the DS and DS Lite, via the installation of the SvSIP homebrew application, but homebrew applications are currently blocked on the DSi due to piracy worries.
Skype applications are already available on most mobile phones and the PSP, so it wouldn't be surprising if the company had at least some form of DSi client in internal development.
Given Nintendo's intention to build the DSi into more than just a gaming device, it's difficult to see any reason why they wouldn't approve such an app, unless they're planning a VoIP client of their own, which has been rumoured.
