Mobile VoIP and IM : Fring


The next thing I am going to discuss is VoIP. Apparently there are lots of options available to you. Skype is very popular. Unfortunately it’s mainly to be used on your PC. On your mobile phone, I recommend to use Fring. One single client can connect to Skype, MSN, Yahoo, AOL and even SIP. You can chat with your friends no matter what kind of IM they use. And the best part is, you can even buy a dial in number for either your Skype and or SIP account, then the Fring software can be used as a 2-way communication tool.
I have found that its voice call quality is very good most of time providing both parties in call conversation are not traveling in high speed both under 3G mobile network's coverage.

Features highlight of the Fring software are
  • A mobile client to do IM and VoIP
  • Support Skype, MSN, Yahoo, AOL and SIP
  • Can do traditional pstn/mobile call out via either Skype or SIP
  • Native client is compatible to Nokia Symbian, Window Mobiles
  • Fring Lite (Java client) was introduced recently to support mass market feature phones
This is the second software I will recommend you to be on your mobile device.
