Skype Phones from Futiro

futiro_phones.jpg

If you think that the three phones shown in the picture are bound to leave a hole in your pocket, think again. These sleek looking designer Skype phones cost only between $55 to $75, but have looks that can command much more. Designed by the Irish company Futiro, the three flavors are branded as Luna, Terra and Solo. The top of the line model, Luna, comes with a full keypad and hands-free feature while the cheapest of the three, the Terra, has a simple four-button keypad. Solo makes its presence felt in the middle of the range with its portability feature.

Alas, there is a reason why these phones are so inexpensive. They connect only via USB and so you've got to be corded to your PC while you're using them. As of now, there is no news of a WiFi version in the works, and I wouldn't expect the same to be available in this price range. If however, you care more about appearance than the fact that they're not wireless, you can buy these from the Futiro website.
