Posted May 26th, 2007 by Mihnea Boiangiu
A guy from Live Digitally has interviewed Netgear’s CEO - Patrick Lo. During the interview at Netgear’s HQ, Patrick Lo presented him the 2nd-generation WiFi Skype Phone. Yes, the phone is in development right now.
The 2G Skype Phone doesn’t look very different from the first one. However, it is smaller, lighter and the battery lasts longer. The WiFi Skype Phone 2.0 will work seamlessly with hotspots. Netgear is trying to develop a new graphic user interface. To use this Skype phone you will need a wireless rooter and a base station. You can connect up to 4 phones to a single base station. Other official details will be presented in the future. For now you can check up the video showing the phone.
Here is the video with Patrick Lo:
