Tradewinds 2

Tradewinds 2 is the sequel to Tradewinds® – a best-selling game of Far East trade and pirate adventures. Tradewinds 2 offers players a brand new adventure based in the exotic seas of the Caribbean. Building on the trading fun of the first game, Tradewinds 2 features 20 all new ports to explore, new ships and weapons to buy and upgrade, new goods to trade in, and a brand new feature – tasks to complete for honor and reward. In each port, the Governor may request the help of your captain – from simple shopping tasks to rescuing fair maidens and defeating dangerous pirates. Elicit help at the Inn, and buy charms and amulets from the trader to help your safe passage to the next port.

Choose from 5 characters to Captain your ship, or even create your own with the character generator, and then set sail for your adventure. Tradewinds 2 offers two play modes – Story Mode and Free Trade Mode – both offering many hours of game play. With over a hundred different tasks in a range of different character combinations encompassing different ports, Story Mode has excellent replay value. Free Trade Mode offers a different challenge, where players sail the seas to trade amongst ports and build their fortunes.

Tradewinds 2 is available for Palm OS® handhelds with hi-res screens running OS5, and for Windows Mobile® devices with a touch screen running WM2003, 5.0, and 6.0. Priced at $19.95, visit http://www.astraware.com/tradewinds2 for more information, to download a trial, or to buy.

Netgear SPH101 Skype WiFi phone

There is no denying that Skype, and VoIP services in general, are growing in popularity. But in order to use Skype you are typical tied to using a PC in order to make and receive your voice calls. However, using a PC with a headset is not necessarily convenient.

Netgear Skype WiFi Phone

Netgear Skype WiFi Phone

Enter the Netgear SPH101 Skype WiFi phone. The SPH101 looks very much like a regular mobile phone, but where the device differs is that it connects to a WiFi connection, either your home router or a wireless hotspot, and allows you to sign into your Skype account.

We’ve just picked up the Netgear SPH101 and we’ll be using the device and putting together a review over the next week or so. For now we thought you might like an unboxing video.

Tracy and I are both heavy Skype users so we are looking forward to testing the Netgear Skype phone.

For anyone wishing to contact us via Skype you can do so via our Skype username: tracyandmatt or using our Skype-in phone number: 0208 123 3757. We are always happy to hear from our readers!

The Netgear SPH101 can be purchased from eXpansys.
