Panasonic Skype Phone

Panasonic has recently launched its first ever phone to work with Skype, officially called the Panasonic KX-WP800, this Skype phone features it own access point so even if the PC is turned off you can still make and receive voice calls. The KX-WP800 Skype phone offers 4.5 hours of talk time and 55 hours of standby time, and since Panasonic has worked with FON, you can make calls using a FON hotspot wherever you may find one available.

While Skype fanatics in Japan are rejoicing with the release, there is no word yet on when or if the Skype phone will be available in the US or Europe. Panasonic’s Skype phone will retail for ¥29,800 (around $293 US).
