The Passport costs $A3477 including a fixed camera with integrated microphone, and there is also a bundle including a pan/tilt/zoom camera and an external microphone pod. Specifications include 720p30 video (requires 1Mbps connection; lower resolutions are also available), and H.261, H.263, H.264, H.323, H.239 and SIP compliance. Skype audio compatibility will be added to a model due to arrive before the end of 2009.

With LifeSize Passport anyone can take advantage of HD video and audio, anywhere there is a broadband internet connection," he added. |
