Netgear have a great concept, a wifi phone that integrates with skype (here). And Amazon are accepting pre-orders. Top stuff but a recommended retail price of $299. No way – won’t fly in the UK – certainly not with me! I was looking forward to this as a skype phone which allows a skype experience without the need for my PC to be powered on. Now I can’t justify this at that cost.
You can use Skype on a Pocket PC with internal WiFi card, which gives you the same functionality as in Netgear’s phone. But if you don’t already have a PocketPC, it will be more expensive than 299$.
