Modern digital devices have definitely gone absolutely crazy these days! We now have handheld gizmos for mobile communications, not to mention mobile computing. But who would've guessed a mobile device that is capable of video and audio communications through wireless internet and connectivity would be released so soon! Hey, I knew this was coming, all because of VoIP technology. But what I didn't know is that it would be happening so soon!
Philips, that great manufacturer of reliable and high-end equipment for ages now, have released the VP-5500. This device is a VoIP mobile phone with built-in support for wireless internet connectivity. Plus, it is not only a mobile phone, but it is also a mobile video phone as well! Imagine the things that you could do with this baby!
But, Philips have just introduced this device in Netherlands, yet Philips promises more locations where the device would then be available sometime in the near future. I guess they're still waiting for VoIP to reach its maximum potential in the field of
digital communications. Well, they may even be waiting for VoIP service provdiers to address the issues which pertain to cost, security, and privacy. Plus, I think Philips isn't after low-cost internet connectivity, because wireless internet connectivity is not only free in most locations, but very cost-effective as well in those areas which do not have free wireless internet capabilities!
