Product Description

Think of the people you talk to all the time, but don't see enough of. Kids. Grandkids. Close relatives and friends. Whoever and wherever those people are, they are the reason for Ojo. With Ojo, seeing everyone you love is just a phone call away. There have been other videophones before but this one displays fully synchronized images at a lifelike 30 frames per second in sharp color, accompanied by superior sound.

Ojo works over a high-speed cable or DSL modem, and also uses the household's existing telephone number for both IP video calls and conventional voice calls using existing PSTN or VoIP service.

Ojo's stylish display unit houses a high-resolution 9:16 portrait-oriented 7? digital LCD screen and a state-of-the-art miniature camera for bright, clear images from both sides of the call. An Ojo call sounds as great as it looks. The audio signal is strong and clear, and Ojo has an Automatic Gain Control (AGC), full duplex echo-canceling speakerphone for great sound even when there's background noise.

The Ojo base station operates with only one handset at a time and will not function with multiple handsets. To place or receive calls, Ojo needs to be plugged into both the broadband and electrical outlets. The handset charges in the Ojo base station. The base station itself is not battery powered and requires A/C electrical power through the supplied power cord with in-line transformer to function. You can select upload and download speeds between 80 and 250 Kbps on the system information screen in Ojo's main menu. High-quality video calls require a minimum of 100 Kbps in each direction.

Before you can use Ojo, you must activate your Ojo Service. Ojo Service connects you to the world of real-time, true-to-life video through the Ojo Personal Video Phone. See and hear those close to you with standard service for a flat monthly fee of $14.95, or save money with a yearly rate of $164 when paid in advance. (Prices are subject to change.)

Ojo may work overseas with video calls, assuming suitable broadband access and electrical power are accessible. However, in some cases, Ojo may not work as a standard voice telephone internationally because the standards for regular telephony vary from country to country. Calls made outside of the United States are subject to regulatory agencies of the other countries, which may limit ability to make or receive calls.

Customer Reviews

Form 8-K for WORLDGATE COMMUNICATIONS INC
I am very disappointed having spent $600 for two of them about 6 months ago. It no longer works. I am looking at alternatives, like D-Link's product. It was not the greatest product, but we loved the experience.

5-Feb-2008


The Company is currently in a dispute with its largest customer over the payment of significant monies which the Company believes are owed to it. The customer's refusal to pay such monies has contributed to a shortfall in the operating cash available to the Company to continue operations. Accordingly, on January 30, 2008, the Company shut down its operations as a first step to winding down its business, which will occur if the Company is not able to secure payment of the monies believed to be owed and/or new financing. The Company continues to explore potential financing opportunities and is also pursuing legal recourse against the customer. The Company would intend to resume operations if it can obtain financing or payment of the monies believed to be owed in a timely manner. Without such financing or the payment of monies believed to be owed, however, the Company will continue its plan to wind down the business.

DON'T BUY THIS ITEM - WORLDGATE WENT OUT OF BUSINESS
Worldgate went out of business, so if you buy the phone, you can't use it without the monthly service.
