FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

NHANDZ Releases Audio Caller ID for Skype VOIP

Freeware Lets Skype Users Hear Who's Calling

San Francisco, CA, July 27, 2006 – NHANDZ, a digital home company offering input devices and software that enable remote control of PC/Mac’s, announced the release of AudioID for Skype. AudioID is the latest NHANDZ product developed for the popular VOIP service, Skype (owned by eBay). The company’s suite of Skype products for both PC and Mac platforms enable remote control of Skype in other, more relaxed areas of the home—away from the desktop. As such, they are designed to avoid the necessity of using a mouse (and flat surface) nor view of a monitor screen that is typically required for use of Skype.

AudioID for Skype is a freeware program that announces incoming Skype calls so that users do not even have to be in the same room as their computers (or in view of their monitor screen) to find out who is calling.

The company is positioning AudioID as part of a full remote digital home Skype VOIP solution. A user watching TV in the living room will hear Skype announce a call (AudioID) via their speakers or other audio output device. The user can take (and hang up) the call via voice command (Speakables for Skype) or hotkey/keyboard shortcut (also used to switch to a wireless headset or other audio device instantly via a hotkey product soon to be released by the company). All of this occurs without the user ever needing to be anywhere near a computer.

“With the proliferation of wireless headsets and speaker phones, users have sought out a variety of ways to "cut the cord" and control Skype in ways that are more convenient and appropriate to a proper digital home,” says Benjamin Factor, Marketing Manager of NHANDZ. “For Skype users that have Media Centers or that have their computers connected to their TVs, there’s an added benefit in that the user doesn't have to switch the TV from TV-mode to PC-mode in order to find out who's calling and either take the call or not. In fact the user never needs to switch modes as they can simply answer, reject and hang up the call with Skype's embedded hotkeys.”

The company is offering AudioID for Skype for free to encourage increased adoption of computer-based VOIP, and convergence to the Mac/PC as the central hub of entertainment media in the digital home. The company’s software solutions are being released in advance of a handheld wireless (thumb) keyboard with integrated mouse, NControl™, that the company plans to release later this year. NControl™ will permit even greater freedom to consumers, who will then not be limited by larger and less mobile standard wireless keyboards.

Pricing and Availability
AudioID for Skype (for Windows XP) is immediately available for free download from the NHANDZ website at www.nhandz.com.
