The web browser (at least on K2) is very primitive and doesn't support flash, movies, etc but is fine for basic gmail usage, and other mobile sites. It was very slow and clunky. Don't know what the web will be like on K3.
No to Skype as described below, also there is no microphone for speaking. It does have a two small speakers for listening to audio books and MP3 files and a port for a earphone jack which is nice to listening to such as on a plane.
Someone would have to put a Skype application on it.
No. It doesn't run Windows. It runs on a Linux kernel. There is also a software development kit for making applications. There have been some hacks for older versions in the past, too.
It's no meant for adding software too, but for reading and listening to audio. I think you are wanting to make it into a netbook, and that's just not it's intention.
It has two speakers on the back.
