Speaking of Skype, the techAddiction podcast number three also had a little bit on Square7’s DUALphone. It’s “dual” in that you can make normal PSTN phone calls and Skype calls from the handset. It has two input lines — one for your phone line and a USB connection for your PC. The software that comes with the phone allows you to scroll through your Skype contacts from the handset. Pretty cool.

Of course, only available in Europe for now.

The folks over at The techADDICTION Show are using Skype’s new voicemail feature (which is in beta… whatever beta means these days) to allow interaction with their podcast audience. Listeners of their show can skype the Skype user techaddiction and leave a message about the show. Read more about it here.

Skype’s voicemail feature runs € 15 for 12 months or € 5 for 3 months. A pretty inexpensive way to add interactivity to a podcast.

Oh, as mentioned on the techAddiction show is a bit about Skype Answering Machine which is a freeware client voicemail application for Skype (Skype’s voicemail service is server based).
