ASUS today made available the world’s first Skype Certified™ videophone dedicated to unlimited video calling over the Internet – the AiGuru SV1, part of the Eee Videophone product family. Boasting a large 7” display and a built-in webcam, speaker and microphone, the WiFi-capable videophone lets users make unlimited video calls for free to other Skype users without the need for a computer. The Eee Videophone AiGuru SV1, priced at $299.95, is now available in North America from Skype’s online shop (www.skype.com/shop), and will be available from ASUS authorized resellers later this year. Consumers in Europe can pre-order the videophone from Skype’s shop, priced at €269.95/£219.95, with shipment beginning next week. The videophone will also be available in retail outlets in Asia Pacific later this year.

Its simple-to-use, icon-based interface and intuitive button layout take the complexity out of Internet calling - making it easy for anyone to make and receive Skype-to-Skype video and voice calls. Users can even join voice conferences, making the AiGuru SV1 an inexpensive, all-in-one voice and video conferencing solution for small businesses. Furthermore, the AiGuru SV1 also allows users to make and receive calls to and from fixed and mobile lines at really cheap rates. Read more...
