- Product Description
- The EQO Mobile Internet Phone Service allows Skype users to make and receive phone calls to and from their buddy list on regular mobile phone handsets. Users also can use eqo to see which of their buddies are online and available, and use SkypeOut to make international long-distance calls at significantly less-expensive rates than they would pay to their wireless carrier. EQO will be made available to users of other services later in 2006.
- Market Opportunity
- EQO is designed for Skype users looking to take Skype mobile. Skype is a world leader in instant messaging and VoIP with more than 66 million registered users.
- DEMO Says
- EQO extends Internet VoIP networks to cellular networks, bringing presence and call management features of Skype and other IP-based communications to the mobile phone. Amid the convenience features, EQO enables the VoIP service to become the long-distance carrier for mobile devices — an incredible benefit, especially, for those conducting international business via mobile phone.
