Beamer Video Phone

Pop culture sci-fi TV shows have regularly been credited with giving the inspiration for the tech devices that are reaching today’s consumers. Case in point: the Vialta Video Beamer phone, similar to that used in the cartoon “The Jetsons”, allows the user to have two way video and audio conversations through any regular (analog) phone line and with no extra cost for the call.

The Beamer phone is as easy as using your own phone-- no special installation (wiring/hardware) necessary. It features a 3.5 inch LCD screen and includes a privacy function (in case you don’t want to be seen)--all you need is two video phones and let the video chat begin. Perfect for Grandparents, long distance relationships and anyone that wants to feel closer to someone that is far away. $250 per phone. www.vialta.com.
