In a collaboration effort between Skype and Thomson, the two companies have announced a partnership to develop a family of new consumer products. Today, the companies announced their first joint offering, the GE DECT (News - Alert) 6.0 Wireless Handset.
Digital Enhanced Cordless Technology (DECT) is included in the Skype (News - Alert)-certified handset, meaning callers not only enjoy improvements to quality of their cordless telephone experience, but are also able to use the phones to make calls over the internet.
This new combination further drives the adoption of internet telephone communications in the home by making it accessible to user’s right from their handheld telephones.
Cordless telephones have in the past been noted for providing not so perfect communications including static and popping. With the DECT 6.0, these worries are resolved because technology built into the device offers optimal voice quality, free of interferences.
