New Application
by Dameon Welch-Abemathy on July 10, 2008

No disrespect to my friends at Jajah and RingFree, of course. They do VoIP, and have an "app" for the iPhone, but it's a web page, not an app that you can get through the app store. The calls go over the GSM network.
Why is this "native" VoIP important? For those of us who live where the GSM network is cheap, it may not be such a big draw. When you're roaming, different story entirely. Making a call over WiFi may be less convenient, but it's likely a hell of a lot cheaper than paying roaming charges with your carrier.
My guess is that Truphone will bring their wonderful Nokia application to the Apple iPhone first before others. That's only a guess. What do you think?

How about entering Jaduka's EarthCaller application into the race? We've been considering for a few weeks now to develop a version of EarthCaller for the iPhone & other mobile operating systems. With all the noise recently about a true SIP client application for the mobile phone I think we'll have to offer something up to our growing user community.
