CES 2008: Creative shows off WiFi video phone device

Written by Andre Yoskowitz @ 10 Jan 2008 5:26 User comments (3)

Despite having its specifications leaked by an FCC filing back in December, one of the biggest hits of this year's CES event has been Creative's inPerson, a striking Wifi video phone device.

Creative has said they hope the video phone will be the future solution for people that wish to forgo voice calling and instead want a more futuristic appeal.

The device will feature H.264 video with SIP support as well as a VGA resolution and 2 Mbps bitrate high video quality. The screen, a 7-inch 16.7 million color LCD, will be powered by a lithium-ion rechargeable battery. The company claims 2.5 hours of talk time on one charge.

The inPerson will be used to make video-calls to other devices but the configuration means the consumer will have to adopt a VoIP service if they haven't already.
