Axive's Q Internet Phone, a Product by Q?

We call this a Skype starter kit. What looks like another anime rip-off gadget is actually a USB combo device that integrates a pair of 2W stereo speakers, microphone, webcam and a speakerphone. For VoIP newbies who don't like to fiddle with a stand-alone mic, webcam and a speaker setup, this maybe the ticket. Axive claims the mic can pick up voice as far as 5m while canceling most of the echo thru the built-in DSP. The webcam can be concealed to keep dust from the lens, but at 300k pixel, we don't really care. Volume controls and microphone mute button are beneath the webcam arm. Axive's 4-in-1 device is appropriately named Q Internet Phone, as it maybe something Q from James Bond would come up with.
