Motorola announced on 2nd May 2005 that the Ojo, its consumer oriented videoconferencing solution, would be on display at several high-end electronics retailers across the US ahead of its debut later this month. Motorola will start taking orders for the unit later this month as well.

The Ojo (pronounced oh-joe) promises full motion video and works over a broadband Internet connection. The device will also work as a cordless phone over regular telephone lines when not used for a videoconference. While the Ojo carries a hefty price tag at $799 USD, Motorola hopes that the demonstrations will spark consumer interest.

“Consumers can now experience first-hand the power of visual communications by bringing a Motorola Ojo into their connected home,” Motorola vice-president David said.

Hope so much we can have things like this in Malaysia too. :)
