Unlike many other USB phones on the market, our phone is both USB 1.1 and 2.0 compatible (full speed), and also works with both PC and MAC computers (RRP £29.95).
You might not know it but you can give BT a two-fingered salute and make calls to your friends and family for free using your internet connection.
All you need is our USB Skype phone and you can start making local, national and international calls for the very reasonable price of nothing whatsoever (between skype users).
Voice over Internet Protocol, or VoIP, allows you to use your broadband connection as a normal phone line but instead of paying minute by minute call charges, you pay no extra. We tested quite a few different VOIP phones before deciding to offer our customers this one as it represents the best value for it's advanced features we could find:
It does not require any software to be installed on your computer to use it, you just plug it in and it's ready to use straight away. It's sound quality is second to none due to it's acoustically isolated earpiece and microphone which eliminates echo.
There are 16 ringtones to select from according to your tastes, and features a built in 'on hold' function. The on screen display and menu are clear and easy to use,
and can display your contact list, dialled calls, incoming calls, missed calls, and even your skype balance.
Imagine the conversations you could have with great aunt Ethel in Sydney via your Internet Phone.
The possibilities are as endless, and so might the call time be as It's free!

Summary: If both you and the person you are calling have a USB phone and a free to download "Messenger" program (Eg MSN Messenger) for their computer, or you are both Skype members, your calls will be totally free (that's 0 pence/minute!) anywhere in the world. If the person you are calling does not have a USB phone you can call them on their normal phone for very low rates but you need to join Skype. You can now also get SkypeIN free with your Skype account, so you can give your friends an actual UK landline number to call, that will ring on your USB Phone.
Wow, I have to say this phone has got to be the must have gadget for all households in 2005. The amount of money you can save with it is amazing, especially if both you and the person you call are Skype members, or you use it with a free messenger program as then the calls are FREE! I use it to call my brother who is living in Australia, and we chat about 3 hours a week and it is totally free (I still cannot believe it). Also, this phone from Paramountzone.com is the best available as I searched around, and you cannot get near this functionality for £30. This phone has a useful LCD display (most other internet phones I have seen do not have a display), is super easy to use, and looks great. I think I will save nearly £1000 a year! - highly recommended. Jane Edmunds, Carlisle
What more could I need from a home phone. It saves me loads of money and is easy to use. Joseph Carter, Richmond
Got my phone today, was plugged in and setup within 5 minutes of the package being through the door, great phone, just what I expected now I can call people completely free through MSN 24/7/365! Also works with skype, its so perfect it seems untrue that others can still be paying a monthly phone bill when this phone is available! Amazing, I highly suggest you invest in one of these and completely cut out phone bills all together! Thanks Paramount Zone! Tom Starkie
Great phone, up and running in minutes. Skype is free to download and has millions of users. Skype to Skype calls are free also so no need for MSN. Kieran, Epsom
