Linksys CIT400 Dual-Mode Skype/Landline Internet Phone


About a year ago, I started working from home. I wanted to install an office line - but I needed something I could take with me if I ever moved (which, a year later, we did move to a different state). In reviewing the options, I knew I wouldn't be using the phone too much, so I decided to go with Skype as a provider - primarily due to the low cost of the Skype service.

However, I didn't want Internet telephone service on my PC. I wanted a real phone to use.

The Linksys CIT400 really fit the bill for ease of use, reliability, and features. After a year's use, I can tell you this is really a nice phone. It features support for Skype AND a hardwired phone line - so I can just have one phone in my office for my business line and my home line.

Product Description

The Linksys CIT400 Dual-Mode Cordless Phone with Skype is part of the iPhone family of products that use the Internet to enhance the way you communicate. The CIT400 is a full-featured cordless phone that provides an easy way to take advantage of Skype Internet calling as well as place calls over your normal phone line (PSTN) from a single device. No PC required! Just sign into your Skype account from the handset, and your contacts and their availability are displayed on your color screen. Advanced DECT cordless technology won’t interfere with 802.11 wireless networks.

Dual-Mode capability lets you choose whether to make calls over a standard telephone line or with Skype. Just select who you want to talk to from your contact list on your handset and get ready to talk.

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers Katy Perry continues working with the producers of GHD hair dryers and GHD hair care products: the singer once again demonstrated her luxurious hair in a fresh advertising campaign – this time she had the image of a diva from “the golden Hollywood” era (the pop-diva had already had the image of a hippie, a disco girl, and a mermaid). Luxurious dresses, bright makeup and a small portion of theatricality – one can immediately see that she is a star! The shooting was run by Ellen von Unwerth, who preferred to focus on restrained sensuality and the interplay of tones rather than on bright colors (the latter are always excessive with Katy) and presented black-and-white portraits of Perry to the public. The girl really looks perfect in the pictures : whether she is playing chess, recovering after a tiring concert or just getting ready to appear on stage. But whose merit is this: that of the photographer, the heroine, or maybe Photoshop?
