A new cordless VOIP (voice over IP) handset using a PC running Skype as its base station will reach stores next week.

According to Linksys, the CIT200 allows users to make VOIP phone calls as easily as today’s cordless handsets make conventional landline calls.

The device uses DECT wireless, which Linksys says eliminates interference with 2.4GHz cordless phones and other networking devices.

The CIT200 Internet Telephony Kit includes a handset, a charger and a USB base station that plugs into a computer’s USB port.
