Skype and 3 partnership

News that Skype and the 3 network are working together is very interesting see:

Cheap handset ‘will bring free mobile internet calls to mass market’ | | Guardian Unlimited Business

It is hard to imagine how the device will work - but ‘free’ in this case means that you pay for the phone and an unlimited data tarrif.

I like the idea of a phone that is geared towards thisĀ  - but why only one phone? What will be special about the phone - I would guess nothing physical - but maybe Skype puts special demands on memory and processing power. I would imagine that this is going to be software that can be used on lots of 3 phones - but on one it will come pre-installed.
