Recently released for the Japanese Market, Panasonic announced their KX-WP800 Skype phone. The KX-WP800 includes built-in support for the FON wifi sharing network. So if you happen to be a FON user you can take the handset with you and it will automatically log onto any FON hotspots you come across, allowing you to make wifi calls. It has a decent sized LCD screen, 4.5 hours of talktime approx & 55 hours of standby.

The handset also includes a compact wifi router for setting up a FON hotspot in your home. But if you don’t feel like sharing your net connection, the handset will work just as well with other wifi networks as long as you have the necessary login info.

Hopefully at some point in the coming year it will be available to the European Markets.
