PR Newswire is reporting that Apple has finally updated their iPhone developer SDK to allow 3G VOIP calls:

Apple Computer, Inc. has updated the iPhone developer SDK to allow VoIP over cellular networks. iCall is the first and only VoIP application that functions on the iPhone and iPod Touch over cellular 3G networks.

Back in October AT&T removed this restriction, but it wasn’t until today that Apple has caught up. Skype actually has a 3G VOIP version ready to go and have just been waiting on Apple:

Calling over 3G – as Russ said a couple of weeks ago, we’re waiting for Apple on this one. As soon as Apple removes its current restrictions on calling over 3G, we’ll make a 3G-capable app available. We’ve got one up our sleeves ready for that moment, but for now, we’re being forced to wait.

Let’s hope Skype can get this out really really soon!
