Cisco sniffing around P2P player Skype?

BANGALORE, INDIA: Peer-to-peer Internet telephony provider Skype might be up for sale again, as per a few reports in TechCrunch and GigaOm.
As per reports Cisco has shown interest in Skype, who had filed for IPO early this month.
Skype, founded in 2003, was acquired by eBay Inc in 2005. However, in November 2009 eBay sold 70 percent stake in Skype.
The bid value can go up to $5 billion, adds the report. The reports also add that search engine giant Google had backed off from the bid after showing interest initially.
