Another Skype phone…

Tacky to some, impressive to others, the USRobotics speakerphone looks like a hybrid spaceship cross stereo system. The USB speakerphone will feature echo-cancellation, volume controls and a mute button.

“(January 5, 2006) – USRobotics, a leader in Internet access and networking known for quality, innovation, and performance, announced the availability of its Skype-certified USB Internet Speakerphone, the newest in the company’s family of Skype products. The speakerphone will be available through resellers later this month and is priced at $49.99 (MSRP).�? (USR Press release)

Skype, for those of you that have been living in a dark corner for the past year, is simply a computer program that enables you to make free international calls to any computer with that has an Internet connected and is Skype enabled. The program is free, works on most new computers, and is easy to install.

Now to the fun part, instead of using headsets and speakers, there now are an increasing number of USB input phone options available. One of which is the Doro Skype phone –

USB broadband telephone.
A 315cm cord.
Plugs directly into your USB port.
Real time volume adjustment.

Comes with all the software you need.

Slim lined, ergonomic, and aesthetically pleasing, the Doro is easy to use and is space efficient. The Doro is currently available for around 50USD.

After you read this post, you will be thinking, ‘Why wouldn’t I want one?’ Don’t look at me, I don’t know.

The Pak Lite is not a gun, and its not hunting attire, but it is an ingenious plastic cap, with two LED lights, and when attached to a 9volt battery turns into a tiny torch. I know its not a new mobile phone, or an Xbox 360, but it has a reach of approximately 15 meters, costs about 30USD with a lithium battery, and comes in white, red, and green light.

Madbum over at our sister site GamerzBlog is talking about the Xbox360 Shortages

What’s worse than having massive shortages of Xbox 360s? Having massive shortages and being teased by having a few more trickle in here and there. Stores around the nation have begun receiving very small shipments, usually 20 to 40 per store for big stories, of the popular next gen console from Microsoft. What’s even worse is the way these companies handle selling the systems. The systems are usually gone in the matter of an hour, and many times the company will jack up the price severely (Xbox 360s have shown to have sold for more than $1,000.00).

First thing you can do to cope. Is to go out an buy a PS3, or go fishing. Either way. I bet its going to be a long time before supply catches up to the high demand.
