Packet8 Tango video phone

The Packet 8 Tango is an adapter that converts your dusty analog phones into a high-tech video conferencing powerhouse. Interfacing with Packet8’s VoIP network, the Tango allows subscribers to broadcast their ugly mugs to anyone with a similar setup, streaming video at a more-than-respectable 30 frames per second. Featuring a 5" LCD screen for your viewing pleasure, it also allows you to store up to 100 names and address in its built in database. Oh no, the fun doesn’t stop there — why not integrate a 180 degree swiveling camera for those moments when you just have to stand up and scratch something, but don’t want to hang up the phone. It’s available now from Packet8’s site for a mere $100 after a $100 mail in rebate. What a perfect way to surprise your mom for Mother’s Day. Now go get your video conference on in style!
