Linksys CIT310 Dual-Band Cordless Voip Phone for Yahoo! Messenger with Voice

LinkSys in not new to the Voip game, as we've seen with the LinkSys WIP300 and WIP330 wireless-G IP wi-fi voip phones, and Yahoo Messenger's free Voip phone service is in full swing, so why not get together in one big Voip celebration?  LinkSysys and Yahoo! have already partnered for wireless Music in the past, and now the two companies have introduced the Linksys Dual-Mode Cordless Phone for Yahoo! Messenger with Voice (CIT310) handset. The new voip phone allows consumers to make and take low-cost Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) calls using Yahoo! Messenger with Voice as well as place and receive phone calls using their traditional landline/PSTN connection.

Yahoo! Phone Out subscribers can use the LinkSys CIT310 cordless phone to make an Internet-based call to any traditional or mobile phone at low rates. With the use of a USB base station, the phone gives people the freedom to take their Yahoo! Messenger with Voice calls away from the PC and into other rooms. Additionally, people can search for local business information directly from their phone using Yahoo! Local Search. For example, by programming the phone with a local zip code, people are able to search for a local restaurant (or any other local business) and effortlessly call the restaurant with one click. People also have access to weather forecasts through a weather search setting.

The phone also provides weather search, with 2 days of weather info on the display, based on the zip code entered in the phone. The Linksys Dual-Band Cordless Phone for Yahoo! Messenger with Voice includes a handset with color display, and a USB base station that plugs into a computer’s USB port and a port for a traditional landline/PSTN connection.

The Linksys Dual-Mode Cordless Phone for Yahoo! Messenger with Voice (CIT310) is immediately available through Amazon.com and will be available through other leading online retailers later this month. The Estimated Street Price is $99.99.
