Grandstream Networks’ IP Phone Gets Skype-Certified
The GXV3140 IP offers free two-way or three-way video calling using its integrated 4.3-inch color LCD.
IP voice and video innovator Grandstream Networks announced last week that its GXV3140 IP multimedia phone is now certified by Skype. That means it incorporates native Skype-embedded software to enable Skype video calling without a PC. In other words, Skype’s community of users worldwide, who already have the capability to send and receive free video calls to and from their computers, can now do so with Grandstream’s IP multimedia phone.
The GXV3140 offers free two-way or three-way video calling, along with real-time instant access to a variety of Web and popular social multimedia applications. It also has an integrated Web browser accessible by a 4.3-inch color LCD. †
“Skype certification on the GXV3140 IP multimedia phone creates a seamless video-enabled communications experience from PC to desk phone,” says Grandstream CEO David Li, “giving Skype users the utmost flexibility and convenience for video calling.”
The Skype-enabled Grandstream GXV3140 is the industry’s first desktop IP multimedia phones compatible with both Skype and SIP open standards for voice & video calling. No service contract or additional monthly fee is required to use Skype for video calling.
The GXV3140 is available through Skype Store and Grandstream’s worldwide distribution partners for $229.
