Siemens and Skype Develop Cordless VoIP Phone

At
CeBIT 2004, Siemens mobile introduced a consumer Internet
telephony and messaging solution developed in partnership with
Skype Technologies, the peer-to-peer VoIP provider. The new
telephony product will allow consumers to utilize and manage all
of their traditional Internet applications such as instant
messaging, chat, buddy lists, Internet radio and emails,
conveniently from their Gigaset handset. The Gigaset M34 USB PC
Adapter offers an open interface to enable third party solution
providers to integrate cordless phones into their applications
for VoIP, messaging and home control. Siemens is providing a
free Software Development Kit (SDK).

The Gigaset-Skype Internet telephony package will be available
in September 2004 across Europe.

The Gigaset-Skype Internet telephony solution is the first
product from the Siemens Cordless Product VoIP Integration
Roadmap that will soon include Gigaset Residential Voice and
Data Gateways, and Gigaset WiFi devices.
