Buffalo Announce VH-MU01 USB Skype Fusion IP Phone [VoiP Handset]

Buffalo have announced their new and completely uninspiring VH-MU01 USB
handset with integrated noise cancelling that serves as a Skype phone as
well as sporting Fusion IP compatibility, for those of you in Japan and,
whilst we don't doubt its functionality, we cannot help but wonder about
its (apparent lack of) ergonomics.

As far as VoiP phones go it has to be said that Buffalo's new VH-MU01 is
hardly the most inspiring of handsets in being a wired affair coming
with a mere 50cm of cable length and sporting a design that seems to
wholly ignore the somewhat general consensus that the sides of humans
heads are (save the odd exception) far from flat. Still, notwithstanding
the devices complete lack of ergonomics, for those that are interested,
Buffalo's new VH-MU01 USB Skype and Fusion IP handset offers no display,
comes in either white or black and is destined for release in early June
'08.

Alternatively, if you want a VoiP handset that offers everything this
device doesn't (i.e., inspiring design, extended functionality,
desirability, an acknowledgement that the human head is generally curved
to some degree, etc) you may be interested in Tompson's utterly gorgeous
Symbio Cordless DECT VoiP handset (though its yet to be released).
