Feel like a powerful exec with the Buffalo keyboard/Skype phone combo

Buffalo-keyboard-with-Skype-phone.jpg

With this Buffalo keyboard and built-in Skype phone, otherwise known as the — get ready for it — BKBU-SKJ109/SV, you'll have everything you need to communicate right in front of you. It's like a little nerve center for the budding power executive or evil villain.

The receiver is Skype certified, so you won't have to do much to it to get it to work other than have Skype on your machine and install all of the appropriate software. There is one downside, though, that you'll notice right when you pick up the set: it's pretty small. While that's a good thing in the sense that it doesn't add too much to the keyboard, you may not feel all that powerful after all. Other than that, you've got a full board with 109 keys.

The Buffalo BKBU-SKJ109/SV comes out in Japan, where Skype is crazy popular, in early October for around $65.
