“Skype and Dell agreed today to ship Skype’s video Internet calling software as an option to Dell’s new XPS mobile systems, the XPS M1210 and XPS M2010.
Under the terms of the agreement, Dell will offer to pre-load Skype on the XPS 1210 and 2010 as part of an optional audio-video communications package that also includes an integrated rotating webcam, noise-isolation earbuds and mobile broadband capability. The M1210 features a 12.1-inch display and retails for $1,300. The M2010 features a 20.1-inch high-definition display and retails for $3,500.”
There is concern, however, over Skype’s functionality with enterprise networks. Several bugs have been found and could jeopardize the infrastructure of businesses. Dell isn’t in an absolutely horrible position though as the software has only been installed on the XPS systems. They will have a hard sell, however, in trying to get IT to agree with having it installed on other systems. Get the full story here: Dell to Bundle Skype on New XPS Laptops
