EQO Communications announced immediate availability of EQO Mobile for Skype on the Palm TREO 650 and Motorola ROKR, SLVR, and RAZR handsets.
What is EQO?
EQO is a plugin which runs on your computer, connecting your Skype™ user account to your mobile phone via our secure, always-on network. Once you've installed EQO on your PC, EQO will ask you a few questions about your mobile phone and we'll take care of the rest by configuring the mobile phone application and sending it to your phone automatically. You can then install it with only a few clicks.
Using a combination of a phone-resident J2ME client and a presence-enabled Voice-over-IP (VoIP) signaling network, the EQO Mobile Internet Phone Service is able to bridge online identity, VoIP calling, and Instant Messaging services to more than 200 million J2ME-capable mobile phone handsets already in use worldwide. With more than 74 million registered users, Skype is the dominant player in Internet calling and Instant Messaging communications services worldwide.
While the company is working with Skype to improve this solution, EQO has built the foundation to extend presence-enabled voice and instant messaging to mobile devices in partnership with other high-profile online communities, instant messaging networks, and wireless carriers.
EQO Mobile for Skype lets users make and receive calls, send Instant Messages, and view presence information about their buddies over the Skype network. It is available for free to consumers as a Beta product via the EQO (pronounced "echo") web site at www.eqo.com.
