Windows Live Messenger service
Microsoft and Uniden have come together for the development of hardware that will allow users to make live calls using the Windows Live Messenger service. The product, WIN 1200 is a cordless handset that can be used with PC’s and landlines as well. It works at 5.8 GHZ and sports a color screen; it is priced at $ 99.99 and is available in the US.
The instrument uses the Web calling service provided by MCI for calling landlines using VoIP. Messenger contact lists can be downloaded on to the phone and individual names can be assigned different ring tones. The Windows Live Messenger service is currently in its beta stage.
