Logitech and Skype have developed a new product to target Skype consumers who miss the sophisticated call features of their traditional, deskbound telecom systems but still want to use the Internet-based network. Named EasyCall Desktop, the product includes a mouse, headset and speakerphone. It also features a Skype-specific keyboard that includes one-touch buttons for launching Skype software, placing a call, ending a call, changing the user’s online status, and dialing a mobile or traditional phone. The F9 to F12 keys also act as programmable speed-dial buttons.
