Skype High Quality Video Review |
| Skype launched their latest version of Skype last week featuring "High Quality Video". Skype High Quality Video isn't quite 1280x720 or even 1920x1080, but it is a very respectable 640x480 (VGA) resolution at 30fps. This is probably the perfect resolution size since any higher and you will need a ton of bandwidth. HD Video can get away with higher resolutions since there is plenty of bandwidth space in DVI cables and component cables that travel 6 feet or less from your various home entertainment components. |

Skype on the Sony PSP |
| Skype on the Sony PSP may be unveiled this week at CES as details of it are on Sony's CES page accessible when you click the PSP controller graphic on their site. The Sony PSP doesn't have cellular data connectivity so you'll need a WiFi hotspot to use this. Fortunately, PSP users get free T-Mobile Wi-Fi access. It's about time the Sony PSP got VoIP considering the Nintendo DS has been running VoIP for some time. Now Sony just needs to add SIP support to work with any SIP provider. |

VoIP Solutions |
Voice over Internet Protocol, also called VoIP, IP Telephony, Internet telephony, Broadband telephony, Broadband Phone and Voice over Broadband is the routing of voice conversations over the Internet or through any other IP-based network.
Companies providing VoIP service are commonly referred to as providers, and protocols which are used to carry voice signals over the IP network are commonly referred to as Voice over IP or VoIP protocols. They may be viewed as commercial realizations of the experimental Network Voice Protocol (1973) invented for the ARPANET providers. Some cost savings are due to utilizing a single network to carry voice and data, especially where users have existing underutilized network capacity that can carry VoIP at no additional cost. |
