Skype CEO Niklas Zennstrom announced plans to develop a VoWLAN phone, which will allow customers to connect to the Skype network via WiFi. This follows Vonage's foray into the WiFi VoIP market with their WiFi VoIP offering made by UTStarcom and called the F-1000. The Skype WiFi phone will be available later this year.

Hi, this idea seems great!!! I currently have a VOIP phone with broadvoice, but I also use skype. One of the problems I have with my phone is with certain wirless networks like in hotels or starbucks that display a start up page requesting my info. I hope this phone has the capability to handle these internet spots to widen the coverage of the skype phoone as opposed to my zyxel phone.
One Single word, Rubbish!
Have you guy heard of something call pocketpc or pocketpc phone, it will do skype, cellphone, photos video, word, ecxel........games, just about anything a normal pc can do.
All in your pocket! and doesn't cost $300! and you can get anytime, it's been out for years.
Why are you guys so ecxited about this rubbish wifi skype phone????????????
Wake up!
Jack, I also thought like you did, but it seems the quality of the voice and range are specifically enhanced in these VOIP phones, rather than using your pda or mobile phone for these purpuses....
Unless there is a new product or something
These phones all looked kinda similar to me so I went for the cheapest one I could find in the uk at i-voip.co.uk.
The Edgecore wifi skype phone i bought has helped me out quite a bit as the call quality on my PDA using Skype was shocking.
These things never quite live up to all the hype but I can see myslef using this to make my Skype calls for ages
