Skype Teams Up With Dell to Make Internet Calling Even Easier
Skype announced an agreement with Dell, the world's largest maker of personal computers, to ship Skype software with new Dell XPS mobile systems - the XPS M1210 and XPS M2010.
The agreement will allow Dell to provide its customers with easy access to Skype's voice and video Internet calling software. Dell will be able to pre-load Skype on the XPS 2010, a unique mobile entertainment system featuring a 20.1-inch high-definition display with integrated webcam. The XPS 1210 can be configured with Skype as part of an optional audio-video communications package that also includes an integrated rotating webcam, noise-isolation earbuds and mobile broadband capability.
