Asus to launch wireless Skype phone with music streaming
As soon as the Wi-Fi enabled Skype handset has hit the stores, it;s being upgraded – by Asus in this instance, which is introducing a Wi-Fi enabled handset that doubles up as a speaker, playing songs streamed from your PC.
Going under the name of the AiGuru S1, the handset connects to a PC running Skype across your Wi-Fi network, supporting all the usual Skype features – SkypeIn, SkypeOut, conference calling, voice mail and contacts. The handset also contains a 0.5W speaker for hands-free calls, which you can also yse to listen to music. Or alternatively, plug in a pair of earphones into the handset’s 3.5mm audio socket. And if you’re Windows Media Player, you can control it remotely with the handset.
