Samsung Unveils Two Monitors with VoIP Functions

Samsung displayed two 22" LCD monitor models with VoIP functions at this year's IFA consumer electronics trade show. Samsung Electronics' new SyncMaster 220TN monitor is embedded with simple networking modules, enabling users to go online and make video calls when connected to LAN cable even without a PC. As the monitor has a built-in 2MP camera, microphone and speaker, users can make conference and video calls by using software that comes installed, without buying additional equipment while they go online. The other new monitor, SyncMaster 225UW, developed for more convenient VoIP calls, is optimized for Microsoft UC (Unified Communication) solution for total personal ID management. Moreover, the SyncMaster 225UW with built-in webcam, microphone and speaker allows users to make video calls or to chat with traditional messenger systems such as MS Live Messenger and Skype. Both monitors support high resolution of 1680x1050 and have USB hub functions with four USB ports. More information on Samsung at IFA 2007 is available here.
