iPhone of Home Phones Coming Next Year


It may look like an iPhone, but it’s actually a home phone/information center that’s meant to sit on your coffee table, phone table or kitchen counter.
IP telephony company OpenPeaks iPhone clone for homes is production ready, says Amy Mikolasy, OpenPeak’s director of partner marketing, and could be in the market by the first quarter of 2009.
Florida-based OpenPeak has been working on the slick IP media phone, called OpenFrame, for about a year and a half now. “We have done the end-to-end product design, from hardware to software and the device management system,” says Mikolasy.
The phone has been designed as an interactive information and communication center for the family. “It is meant to replace the home phone, which has been left behind by technology,” she says.
OpenFrame owes much to Apple’s iPhone — not just its design, but the whole ecosystem of services surrounding it.
The phone will be manufactured by Open Peak but is likely to be distributed by telecom service providers. Meanwhile, third party software developers can create applications for it, much as they can with the iPhone
