Arrow Skype Dual Phone Mac Compatible?????

Hi Guys

I have been searching the net and asking so many people about a mac compatible skype wireless dual phone like the Philips VOIP433 for the PC. I love Mac but im getting so frustrated at the lack of software and peripherals available for the mac. I really dont want to move to PC and the thought of going into buy a PC just so I can use skype is daunting after preaching on how great apple is to all my friends....

I have even contacted the makers of the Skype DualPhone and ask why they dont have Mac drivers and they said it was because of the poor number of mac subscribers to skype and it was not finacially beneficial to them.

If anyone knows of drivers or can create mac drivers (you would make a fortune) for the wireless dualphones in the market please let me know as im about to go to PC world and buy a PC and enter into the dark side!!!!

Cheers

Steve

Just use parallels to run windows xp on your mac alongside os x.

That way you can use the best of both worlds!

Hi Steve,

Have you ever found a solution for this problem? calling with a dualphone with your mac and using Skype?

Hi Steve
have you thought of using Fusion and installing XP into it, that way you have the best of both worlds?
