If you want to make your Skype calls without having to be attached to a computer, then the SPH101 Wi-Fi phone from Netgear could be a good solution for you. Set to start shipping on June 30th, Amazon is all prepped up to start taking pre-orders now on their website, but it's going to cost you a pretty penny to get your hands on one.
You are getting a discount, though, from the $300 list price. Amazon is dishing out the standalone Skype goodness for $250. We first heard about this phone back in January, so it is good to get a firmer release date and a sense that all this news you read on a computer screen actually corresponds to something you can buy, and not just another "concept" or "handset that will never come to North America."
