Skype phone gives us a tune

Following yesterday’s news about the mouse with the mostest from a company few of us have heard of, may I now introduce the world’s first wireless Skype music phone from a company few of us have heard of.
The AiGuru S1 is the work of ASUSTeK Computer. Normally they make motherboards and things, but they’re now getting in touch with their sexy side by releasing a gorgeous WiFi Skype phone that doubles as a wireless music streaming device. Mm, my precious.
The AiGuru S1 uses 802.11b/g wireless technology, so you’re free to roam around your house while you chat – and you get better signal quality and wider coverage than with Bluetooth. Skype comes pre-installed, and the phone can be used for SkypeOut and SkypeIn calls. A high-quality speaker turns the gadget into an MP3 player that you can use to access and stream songs stored on your computer.
Want one? Course you do. AiGuru S1 will be available to buy from a gizmo emporium near you in October, with an RRP of £69.99.
