I recently received my free 3 UK SIMS, and I have a K850i, I was wondering if I would be able to just install Skype on it, or whether I would need to flash my K850i to 3 firmware to use Skype-to-Skype for free...

No, you can install the java version and it does work - I have tried it. If you go to the skype site you will be able to download the app to your phone.

Do you happen to have the JAR/JAD file? I don't want to have to top up my 3 sim, ; )

So I had the chance to test this out this weekend, basically, if you have topped up, and you're not using a 3-branded phone, it will use your 150mb of free data, but if you haven't topped up, you will not be able to use skype-to-skype for free...
I branded my K850i to 3 this weekend and it works great without the need to top up, though i will be topping up, I just wanted to see how it all worked out.
Think I may pick up a spare SE phone to use skype as 3 branding is disgusting, lol

Well my phone is 3 branded but i downloaded the customisation files and removed all the branding, so it looks debrand but it aint
