Topcom Webt@lker 5000 First Impressions

Although I was unable to get a live demo of the unit at CES, the product was solidly built and certainly had a “business class” feel. As I remarked above, I believe this is the sort of product that allow for greater acceptance of Skype as a business type service. The Topcom Webt@lker appears to have the same features and functionality of any other desktop IP phone on the market. Although Skype as a service is still missing some business class features, it is promosing to see them pushing product manufacturers to release business class hardware for Skype.

Although the Topcom Webt@lker 5000 won’t be out until next quarter (April), if you are looking for a business class phone for Skype, it is well worth the wait. With a suggested retail price of $199.99 USD, it is very liley you will be able to pick one of these up for uner $180 dollars, making this phone a great value and must have.
