Hi! I'm looking for a wireless speaker that while playing music, will also pickup incoming skype calls (override music, so they aren't missed). Work?

Yes this speaker will Play and stop on an incoming call even if connected to 2 devices

I have not tried it with skype but I don't see why it wouldn't work. The speaker plays whatever your device is playing. If you're playing music on your device and receive a Skype call then you should be hearing it thru the speaker as well.

This is not a wireless speaker. This is a regular speaker, just a very good one, and these are meant to be mounted flush with the ceiling. You wire it to your music system, amplifier etc, and play music on your music system, and hear the soubd through these speakers. Now if your music system can connect to your phone, then yes you can play music on your phone. But do understand that there is no direct connection between your phone and these speakers. Hope that helped.

All phone calls. Any type of messaging like voxer. But none of the line or skype apps. You can listen to music.

yes. This speaker has a built in wifi hot spot, although you can not use the hotspot to surf the web. You can use it for wireless streaming of music from just about any device

Immediately, I would say these speakers were not designed for that kind of function. These speakers are more set up for an actual computer (be it a desktop or laptop; something with an operating system), but then you could use Apple's Remote app to control iTunes on said computer. Klipsch Music Center (KMC) would be what you'd want if a wireless speaker setup is what you are after. No dedicated subwoofer, however.

No try the UE boom wireless speaker it's awesome..the Philips is ok but the sound quality in the UE BOOM speaker is great.with it being wireless you can do it all with that one...

I dkbt have my phone set up in such a way but i do know it is possible with the IP7000. I know Polycom does not sell such a speaker but they do recommend a couple models that do work. You will also need their speaker integration kit.

The speakers are wired. Wireless refers to the bluetooth feature that allows you to play music from your smartphone or other wireless device.

Anything that has bluetooth capability will work with the wireless speaker.

Skype works perfect for video calls. I recently use it for a job interview and it was perfect. It has stereo speakers, one in each side.

Should work with this speaker. Speaker has its own amp, plus volume, high and low adjustments. Performance will probably depend on quality of wireless mic.

Yes for audio. You can use it either be a headphone for sounds, or it can also use softphone clients like jabber to place calls. I don't have Skype, but I imagine it would work for that also. I love this headset. Has a very long life. And it can connect to all three devices but not at the same time. Work Phone(Special cable for phone might be needed), Laptop, and Cell phone(Blue tooth).

I'm not sure I understand your question, but if you're asking if the logitech can basically be used as a speakerphone fo calls, I don't think so but haven't tried or investigated that. I believe your can pair it with your phone and play your mp3s, Pandora, iTunes, etc. And if you're asking whether other sounds (ie. message alerts, phone calls, etc.) can be heard, I don't know because I've only used it with my ipad but with most of these units, such alerts are not heard through the wireless-enabled speakers; instead, alerts generally pause the music. Hope this helps and if I totally misunderstood you, please feel free to clarify.

No, but there is a speaker now out called the Jawbone that is wireless via bluetooth and rechargeable. You might try that.

I can only get the speaker to work on some occasions. I wouldn't recommend using it, every time I have gotten it to work the quality is incredibly low. It seems to be meant to be used strictly for a skype handset. I would recommend a Bluetooth headset for voice chat. I really like the samsung HM1700.

i haven't had any luck so far, not because of skype but because the bluetooth on my computer won't register this as a full headset (mic and headphones) it only picks it up as headphones. i think this has something to do with pairing though. apparently it has two profiles, one utilizes remote controlling from the headphones and maybe the mic too and i guess the other only supports the headphones. i guess i'm going to try to UNPAIR them and see if that works.
