According to mobile operator 3, the mobile phone industry is definitely changing. The question we need to ask ourselves is if it is for the better or not. Now we get to look at the new Skypephone and think whether it can be the future of cell phone calls or not.
Skype is currently used on around 246 million personal computers. We are faced with a lot of possible users but not all of them will be making the switch to the mobile phone. For starters, one huge problem is that you will stay at home if you basically want to use the software. Since now there have been many attempts to create a Skype mobile phone but none was established outside Wi-Fi. This mobile phone from 3 comes with a special Skype contact button. It is used to call directly your Skype contacts.
The handset is actually manufactured by Amoi. It looks a lot like the Sony Ericsson with a large enough screen and a keypad that is simple and large. It also features a good 2 megapixels camera and included 256 MB of memory. We can basically say that there is not a lot that you get from this phone. It is simple and effective.
There is an interesting set of Skype procedures associated. You will log in to your Skype account and you can basically have both the PC and the phone logged in at once. If you get a call you will choose what to use when answering. As you might expect, phone call quality is not that clear but it is good enough, just like Skype. The package you will get from 3 will allow you to make 4000 minutes of phone calls. To make everything even more special, 10,000 messages are also added to the mix. Remember that this Skypephone does not have a QWERTY keyboard so you will need to be good at texting.
