Internet calling service providers - Skype
Philips has been building close relationships with Internet calling service providers such as Skype and Microsoft Windows Live Messenger to develop technology that delivers a rich user experience and is easy-to-use. These close business relationships have helped Philips innovate and introduce entirely new categories of devices, such as the flagship Philips VOIP841 DECT phone for Skype, which has been granted a CES Innovation Award for its outstanding design and feature-set.
