You'll need to download the general Skype Mobile app from the market and not the preinstalled Skype for Verizon app.  The latter routes calls over Verizon's voice network and can't be used on wifi.

Hopefully once Froyo is out this will work, the 'general Skype Mobile App' doesn't work with the browser right now!

You might want to make Fascinate owners aware that the link you provide is useless, it simply tries to download the same useless Verizon version of Skype that is pre-loaded in my phone already and does NOT work. However I downloaded from the the market the actual Skype app.  that comes from Skype. The actual Skype app. does work on the Fascinate, the bloatware version from Verizon does not work and it is simply a waste of my phones memory because I can't remove it.
