Skype Phones for the Mac.

The Skype VoIP software that lets you make voice calls from your computer to an ordinary phone line has been available for the Mac for some time. However, most of the handsets and accessories designed for use with Skype have been for PC users only. Now, though, you can starting to see a selection of Mac-compatible handsets.

SkypeStyle has just launched a number of Skype handsets for the Mac. The Cyberphone Mac is a USB handset that plugs into a USB port on your Mac and allows you to control Skype software and make calls through the handset. For the low price, you can go cordless with the Polar IP Atomic handset, or you can completely unplug from your computer with the Edge Core WiFi Phone, a mobile handset that can make Skype calls using any wireless network or hotspot.

Mac gadget specialists, Keyspan, are getting in on the act too, with their own Cordless VoIP Phone. The handset is a little pricey but includes a rechargeable battery so you won’t need to spend money on batteries.
