Ebay recently quoted that they overpaid for Skype. Well everyone knows the truth they did. Now it seems skype is eyeing the fast growing mobile voip market by deploying a skype powered mobile phone in the market.
The good news is those who still love skype can use it to make totally free international calls. The question is can this be successful? We all know skype made VOIP popular on the traditional PC side. Can they repeat the success for mobiles?
Skype has teamed up with 3 has launched the skype mobile on 2nd november in UK. The users can make totally free skype to skype calls and send IM to other skype users. Of course, they can use skypeout for making calls to traditional phone lines.
The 3 Skypephone will be available this year in the UK, Australia, Austria, Denmark, Hong Kong, Italy, Ireland, Macau and Sweden.
We grabbed a Youtube video to give you a quick look at the 3 SkypePhone.
Impressed? go Buy Skype Phone from Skype Shop.
Hopefully skypephone would be soon available on other networks and other countries. Does this trigger enough interest in Mobile VOIP? Is this a serious thread to companies like Fring, Truphone and Yeigo ?
