VoIP calls on the iPhone!
A new Voice Over IP Service that allows for free calls on the desktop, web and iPhone, has now become possible with a revelation from Apple. Apple has recently dropped the restriction that made it impossible to have VoIP calls over 3G meaning it would be possible to make cheap VoIP calls over your iPhone.
Apple has declared that it is now “the first and only VoIP application that functions on the iPhone and iPod touch over cellular 3G networks.” Regardless, there is now at least one app on the market that can make 3G VoIP phone calls possible on the iPhone.
We knew this was coming. At the CTIA conference in October, the American telecoms carrier AT&T confirmed that would provide functionality to support cheap VoIP over 3G for the iPhone.
Now that the restriction have been lifted, you can expect Skype and possibly Vonage to soon work over mobile 3G networks. This is a fantastic revelation could mean cheap mobile phone calls in the future with VoIP functionality over their Apple iPhone and possibly other Smartphones by makers such as Nokia, Motorola, Sony-Ericsson and Samsung.
But another possibity with this application which is available on the iPhone is that it will also be available to the iPad, which could mean cheap VoIP calls on the iPhone, the iPad and other Smartphones in the future such as the Blackberry….what a cool money saving prospect.
