Logitech To Provide Skype-certified Headsets

Logitech and Skype have recently inked a deal that will see Logitech, a leading computer accessories manufacturer, begin to offer Skype-certified headsets.

The new video feature in Skype 2.0 (currently video is Windows-only) has been tested and certified for use with Logitech’s series of QuickCam webcams and PC headsets. According to a press release, Logitech and Skype “worked closely with Skype on usability and performance, to ensure people experience fully synchronized, high-quality video and audio communications over the Internet.”

Both companies will jointly market Skype Video and Logitech’s compatible webcams and headset through a worldwide campaign. As part of the deal Skype will also offer the headsets for sale through it’s online store.
