Make free Skype calls without being on your computer with the new Belkin Wi-Fi Phone for Skype. Belkin's Wi-Fi Phone gives you increased mobility to place free, unlimited domestic and international calls over the Internet to other Skype users, and low-cost calls to ordinary phones worldwide.

The Belkin Wi-Fi Phone connects to many Wi-Fi hotspots around the world, allowing you to easily access your Skype account without turning on the computer. It is perfect to use at home, in the office, or in a free public hotspot. The Wi-Fi Phone works anywhere in the world where there is a free Wi-Fi network, also making it an ideal traveling companion.

"With over 100 million registered users all over the world, Skype is enabling the world's conversations," says Mike Chen, Director of Product Management.
