The WiFi Skype Phone

A phone that supports Skype (without the need of a computer) and makes calls using WiFi is due for launch next year, Engadget reports. The WiFi SkyFone WM1185-T from Accton starts shipping early next year with a retail price of below $150. In theory, WiFi phones should have a huge impact on the telecoms market (esp as they don’t have to place calls through regular cell phone network careers) – but should we be interested in this phone? You tell us.
