Hi guys

Looking for any recommendations on portable Skype phones. Looking for maybe a dual kit for under R2000. Doesn't seem like much is around!

It's for a client and they don't want to use their phones, I have no idea why. They have a Galaxy S2 and S3. Want a dedicate Skype phone to talk on.

And how would this "portable skype phone" connect to the internet? If its purely by wifi then you can just get a cheap android phone, install skype on it and link it to the network.
 
:erm:

S2/S3 = awesome skype phone! Added bonus of being able to use 3G if there's no wireless...

Think you get ones that connect via LAN now, or alternatively through USB to a computer. They have one at the moment, but it's not compatible with Windows 7 or 8. The brand is Dual Phone. Contacted a supplier and they said there are issues with the 4088 model and no replacement has been announced. Something like this http://dualphone.net/
 
No reason not to use a smartphone, crazy, I can't see the reason why anyone would contemplate anything else.
 
Hi There,
If they insist on a skype device then they can choose from those here
I can understand them wanting to have a separate device at times but the simplicity of skype on a smartphone either expensive or cheap is a no brainer to me.

Regards


Tim
