Advantages: Sleek, Light, Good sound quality, 30 mins Skype voucher and 2 yrs warranty. Disadvantages: Only works when connected to a computer it is not standalone like some internet phones are.
for a university student.
We both decided to look around and research what phones would be best for us to use, there was a number of features / criteria that we needed. These were; the phone had to be relatively small, lightweight, be a conventional phone shape, easily connected and disconnected, have good sound quality, and is able to work with Skype. We decided that we would purchase two Freecom InternetPhones from Amazon as that was the cheapest place. An added bonus was that this phone comes with a gift card inside which gives you 30 free minutes on Skype to a landline or anywhere in the world. This phone met all our criteria, is was the right size so it could be held comfortably and had the speaker next to your ear and the microphone near to your mouth (I was surprised how many of the "stylish" phones are the wrong size for this, meaning you ...
Advantages: no batteries required - makes skype more friendly - low price Disadvantages: wire too short
This Tesco InternetPhone is a USB-wired little phone which was created to be used with Tesco internetphone service. I couldn't care less of that service but I was very interested in buying a a cheap PC phone to use on skype and I read this would work ok. The price was an absolute deal... 1p! You don't belive me?

How does it work then? Well it's literally a plug-and-play device. You don't need to install anything if you only want to use it for skype. It is automatically recognized by Windows XP or Vista as a usb microphone and set of speakers (it will show up as USB AUDIO DEVICE). Once it ...
Advantages: unbelivably sexy and beautiful, wonderful internet and video / music Disadvantages: needs a couple of firmware updates to become the perfect phone
is horrendous!
The price in the US is around $400 (or around £210) and the launch price in the UK will be £279
So, the iPhone.....
The iPhones comes in what is quite a small black box, which in itself is beautifully designed. It slides open slowly, given the vacuum created and reveals the iPhone at the top of the box. To protect the iPhone, Apple have even lined the inside of parts of the box with felt! Taking the iPhone out, you are then presented with a small plastic tray, a smaller box with a brief user guide, and then the very small charger, USB lead, Desktop stand and small headset.
First impressions:
Before you even turn it on, the iphone looks beautiful. It's sleek, black and cromed with only 4 buttons (sleep, home, volume and mute). It's surprisingly heavy, but in that well built type feel. The back is ...
