Oregan Networks extends Skype functionalities to the television
 London, UK, 20th June, 2006 - Oregan Networks, a software provider that licenses its
embedded solutions to convergence carriers and
Consumer Electronic brands, today announced
availability of a new feature for delivery of Skype
message alerts and caller ID to TV-centric
devices, aiming to further enrich the end
consumer's experience and interactivity. Oregan
Media Browser, the embedded software product
of the company, enables 'ubiquitous' Internet and
IPTV services and is based on the established
open standards for web content authoring and
distribution.
The new feature enables a scenario, where
consumers can be notified of Skype messages
and calls whilst watching digital broadcast or IP
television, with options to dismiss or respond without leaving the sofa.
The company views the Skype service as one of the most compelling features available
for Internet users today. Delivery of Skype applications on TV is in line with Oregan's
mission to enable the non-PC market to tap into the advanced interactivity, "any-time,
any-place" connectivity and fresh dynamic content - through Internet technologies.
