LAS VEGAS Jun 13, 2006 (AP)— EBay Inc. said Tuesday that it would add a "Skype Me" button to certain categories of listings, allowing prospective buyers to contact sellers directly through the Internet phone service it acquired last year for $2.6 billion.

Those who push the on-screen button will be able to contact sellers by voice, text chat or both to request more information about a specific item in real time, the online auction pioneer said at a convention in Las Vegas.
