The time has come for India to ride on the wave of VOIP communication as primary telecommunication method. With MTNL/BSNL launching their very own VOIP Phone service for replacing traditional landline phone, VOIP is making its way into indian homes.
Broaband is not cheap in India, which is a key component for Video Conference Calls or VOIP Calls. You can't do high quality VOIP or Conference calls with low broband connections. Thanks to MTNL/BSNL who provides robust DSL connectivity even in remote India. That made Video Conference Call a definate possibility.
Now, you can start making Video Conference Calls right from your home with the GVC 3000. India-based engineers in Bangalore and Goa of the Taiwanese networking products leader D-Link have created the first truly indigenous IP or Internet Protocol-based Video Phone — the GVC 3000. It looks and feels exactly like any standard landline handset — except that you can see the person you are speaking to, on a 5-inch liquid crystal screen. This IP Phone is likely to cost around Rs.23,000, however making Video conference calls is not your game, you can settle for a non-Video version of this IP Phone for a mere Rs. 7000.
However this definately kick starts a new VOIP IP Phone market in India. We hope to see more Indian companies taking on the likes of Linksys VOIP Adapter and IP Phones by Netgear etc.
You need high speed internet connection to make smooth video calls, better get an unlimited one.
