Motorola and Skype today announced the first Skype-certified Bluetooth headset solution
in America, the Motorola Wireless Internet Calling Kit. Available at
3,500 RadioShack stores nationwide, the Motorola Wireless Internet
Calling Kit enables Skype users to experience the freedom of wireless
while making free, unlimited voice calls over the Internet*.
Comprised of a Motorola H500 Bluetooth Headset and PC850 PC
Adapter, the Motorola Wireless Internet Calling Kit also includes 30
free SkypeOut minutes so users can make Skype calls to mobile and
landline phones without additional charges. To experience wireless
communications, users plug in the Motorola PC850 PC Adapter to equip
traditional laptops and PCs with Bluetooth technology, load the
required software onto the PC and follow a simple, step- by-step
procedure to establish the cordless connection between the PC and
Motorola H500 headset.
The Motorola Wireless Internet Calling Kit is the latest offering
from Motorola and Skype. Leveraging Motorola's strength in seamless
mobility, advanced technologies, devices and accessories along with
Skype's rapidly- growing global user base and rich voice and messaging
communication tools, the companies aim to provide greater connectivity
options and access for Skype's more than 66 million registered
worldwide users.
With up to approximately eight hours of talk time and a
lightweight, ergonomic fit, the Motorola H500 empowers Skype users to
embrace wireless connectivity for Internet calls -- up to 30 feet away
from a Bluetooth-enabled PC. Skype users can also have calls
automatically forwarded to their compatible Bluetooth-enabled mobile
phones when away from the PC and use the Motorola H500 Headset to
wirelessly conduct cord-free conversations on their mobile phone***.
The Skype Motorola Kit is available today at RadioShack and at the
online Skype store for $99.99.
