A new gadget for the "Corporate Skype Cullprits". Wireless USB-phone with a good range and easy to stow away.

Singapore… The Singaporeans seem to be always a bit faster than Malaysia  on the level of acquiring and distributing technology, but not this time with this Skype-geek in Malaysia (me).. I can see that Malaysia is catching up quickly, and yet I hear many people that tell me that this market is a slow moving one on the matter of embracing technology, which does not mean it is not going to happen ! SME’s are moving forward, believe me. But in general I guess they are right. Still so much work for the MSC/MDEC to do here.. Anyways, do checkout this company that offers an interesting USB Skype Phone. I still have to test it. Will be done, once I get the sample.

According to «Darren Lee» - representative of www.alphawireless.com.sg - the sales of the Ipevo free-1 went well, so (I have tested one, it’s really a stylish high quality product and I can see why it sells so well) , but he said also that this phone will score a bit better than the some other un-branded USB-cabled phones in general. There are quite some things produced in china that might not always give a good sound quality… we all know that…

The box contains a handset, a usb dongle, a usb-cable and a cdrom with the drivers. The phone itself is very light and weighs only 93 gr. You won’t even hear it fall if you loose it…

I think that there is definitely a market for this type of USB-wireless phones. Just think about the fact that your WIFI-phone (who has a mac-address) needs to be allowed on WIFI network whether it is a hotspot or or internal WIFI-network… In certain environment that might not be always that easy to connect.

With this USB-phone, you don’t need to get that permission. Your laptop is already connected and accepted in the wireless lan, so off you go with this one.

I guess this would be a good product if you don’t walk away too far from your computer or laptop. I will be testing the range of this one. But even with short range (keeping the voice quality high), I know few people with offices bigger than 50 meter.. (indoors). Let’s not forget that these phone will probably be oriented to SME.  It looks like a very flexible, simple to use and afforable solution. I can wait to test this one.

I also like that there are no powers adapters needed here. Perfect for travel and people who like portable items. It is very light weight and has a long battery life and will recharge via the PC-usb-cable.

Finalizing it is of course Mac and PC compatible and it comes with Triple AAA recharables batteries giving it a long battery-life. What more can you wish for ?
