Packet8 introduces the Virtual Office Tango Video Terminal Adapter, a convenient and affordable desktop videoconferencing solution that enhances the functionality of the Packet8 Virtual Office hosted iPBX phone system, now in use by over 10,000 U.S. based small businesses.

In addition to unlimited local and long distance calling, enterprise class PBX features and on-demand hosted call center capabilities, Packet8 Virtual Office subscribers can now experience the valuable benefits of worldwide videoconferencing directly from their personal Virtual Office extension. These include a reduction in travel expenses and time spent out of the office, increased worker productivity, more efficient and effective meetings, better support for remote workers and the ability to maintain close day to day contact with important clients.

The Packet8 Virtual Office Tango replaces the Broadband Phone Adapter that normally connects to the Virtual Office business class speakerphone and a business' high speed Internet network. The portable 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" x 1.38" free standing device uses a built-in, high resolution 5" LCD color screen and 180 degree rotating CCD camera to deliver advanced full-motion video at up to 30 frames per second along with crisp, delay-free audio. In addition to two or three way videoconferencing, the Packet8 Virtual Office Tango offers the following features:

• Integration with Microsoft Outlook to allow users to import contact information and facilitate speed dialing and phonebook management
• Integration with Virtual Office calling features through on-screen icon navigation and one-touch radio buttons
• Compatibility with Packet8 Softalk Office
• Built-in Router
• Digital Picture Frame capable of displaying up to 16 images
• Simple to Use Navigation
• Quick & Easy Set up
• Remote Surveillance Mode

The Packet8 Virtual Office Tango is available as a bundle (with the Virtual Office business class speakerphone) to new Virtual Office subscribers for $149.99 (after $100 mail-in rebate) or as an add on device to existing Virtual Office subscribers for $99.99 (after $100 mail in rebate). There is no additional monthly service fee associated with Packet8 Virtual Office Tango videoconferencing -- Virtual Office subscribers receive this added service as part of their existing service plan.
