D-Link Debuts VideoPhone That Operates on a TV

D-Link introduced a broadband appliance that delivers IP videoconferencing (H.323 protocol) to a TV set via a broadband connection. D-Link's i2eye DVC-1000 VideoPhone, which will be priced at $299, features an adjustable tilt/focus camera lens and integrated microphone. It is capable of streaming video at up to 30 frames per second. It does not require a PC to operate and is configured using a setup wizard displayed on the television screen. Standard RCA type audio/video cables connect i2eye to a television or VCR. A standard telephone handset can be attached. The i2eye unit can be set to display video calls in either picture-in-picture or full screen mode.
