Polycom has released a new video phone VVX 1500, a business media phone that combines a personal video conferencing system with a fully featured voice over IP (VoIP) telephone with Polycom HD Voice(TM) and an open application programming interface (API) and microbrowser for real-time delivery of personalized Web content as well as integration with key business applications.
"There is growing demand from our service providers and customers to help them configure video within our BroadWorks call control platform," said Mike Tessler, CEO of BroadSoft. "We have a long history of teaming with Polycom to deliver high quality hosted VoIP solutions, and the VVX 1500 is especially compelling because it goes far beyond the functionality of a traditional video phone by combining rich telephony, business-class video and an applications platform that is all deeply integrated with the BroadWorks platform, and it is extremely easy to use." Broadsof has been working closely with Polycom bringing the VVX 1500 to the market.
With such advancements in video technology, Polycom is yet to learn technologies like YouTube or vimeo. Otherwise I could have embeded a demo video (WMV only) available at Polycom.
