How do I Use a Cell Phone With Skype Via USB?

Skype is a VoIP (Voice-Over-Internet Protocol) software that allows you to make free voice and video calls to other Skype subscribers. Connecting a Skype-enabled device--such as an iPhone or a BlackBerry--to a computer via a USB port adds a new dimension of functionality to Skype.
