Skype and Fon have teamed up to sell the SMC WSKP100 Skype wifi phone with Fon’s La Fonera router. The deal comes in at 160 dollars and includes 500 SkypeOut minutes and voice mail for a year.
The pricing looks good as the handset alone can cost around 200 dollars. Currently it’s out of stock and I am not suprised. Id suggest getting your orders in now to make the calls.
The phone only supports wireless networks and not regular phone calls. The battery is a 1100mAh Lithium-ion battery which gives 3 hours of talk time and 50 hours of standby. It is 802.11b/g compliant, has WEP support in both 64 and 128bit encryption, it runs Skype software and the firmware is upgradeable. IP’s can be either static or dynamic with DHCP. It also supports your contact list to make calls easier.
