A new company from Norway called IPdrum, is planning to bring Skype to all mobile phone users worldwide by using a simple cable they have designed. The IPdrum Mobile Cable connects Skype to a mobile telephone via the mobile telephone network, Skype users will be able to take advantage of worldwide calling for local rates.
Their patent-pending device connects traditional telephone systems with peer-to-peer (P2P) telephony. IPdrum Mobile Cable enables the user to Skype from their mobile phone no matter where they are. “Skype users today need to physically sit in front of their PCs or buy special cordless phones that must be used within a range of a few meters from the PC,” says Kjetil Mathisen, CEO IPdrum.
“These current Skype restrictions provide enormous market potential for IPdrum technology and solutions.” Not requiring any special phones or restrictions to specific network Hotspots or zones, the IPdrum mobile cable is designed to increase Skype performance.
Features incorporated are forwarding incoming Skype calls to PSTN or a mobile phone, synchronizing contacts from a mobile phone or in Skype and sending contacts to Skype users.
