I have a feeling that we could feature a new VoIP phone everyday of the year as these products are being put out by everyone. We chose to link to this phone because, well, it looks kinda cool.
This Skype-certified phone allows you to connect to your laptop via a USB port and make free PC-to-PC calls as well as cheap calls to landline phone using the Skype service.
So, how does it work? Well, there’s no need for microphones, speakers, or a mouse with this stylish, interactive handset. The Multi-Link TeleVoIP USB Phone acts as an extension of your PC to make Skype calling easier. Just pick up the handset from the cradle, and Skype pops up instantly on your monitor. Toggle through your Skype TAB windows (contacts, dial, history) to your buddy list and scroll to the right contact to call. When you’re through, just hang up, and Skype minimizes instantly. Inbound calls ring the phone and light the LED to make sure your calls get noticed.
Talk to your friends for free using your broadband Internet connection. The Multi-Link TeleVoIP USB Phone plugs directly into an available USB 1.1 port on your computer, so there’s no need to wear headphones, buy a headset or have your conversation running through your loudspeakers. This phone is Skype-certified: Skype is free downloadable software that allows you to make free phone calls to other Skype users and cheap calls to ordinary phones. No external power or sound card is needed, and you won’t have the monthly service fees associated with most VoIP services.
