While the rise of voice-over-Internet protocol or VoIP, technology has already helped cut down the cost of making a phone call, it is now starting to have a deflationary impact on the world of mobile, where call charges remain high.
Meanwhile, the current adoption of 3G broadband and inclusion of Wi-Fi in a number of high-end phones is drawing an increasing amount of attention to mobile phone VoIP services. So if you intend to substantially decrease cost for your mobile calls, we present different available VoIP services in the market.
A lot of free software applications are available for you to download and install like Yeigo, Fring, Truphone, Jajah and Skype. Calls are free for mobiles using the same soft wares, even if they are anywhere in the world. You only need to have a data connection like 3g, Wi-fi, GPRS, etc.. However, the cell phone models available on which Fring can work on is limited compared to Yeigo. Fring users have the option to communicate with users of other instant messaging services like MSN Messenger, Skype, ICQ, Google Talk, SIP, AIM, Twitter, etc. Truphone, on the other hand, focuses mainly on high-end phones like iPhone, BlackBerry devices, etc.
Another VoIP service is Jaxtr. It is a nice and free service that allows you to make phone calls to and from mobile or fixed phones. But first, you need to make an account and submit a phone number where you can be contacted. You can then call other people who have done the same.
We also have Yackie Mobile, which is a pioneering type of service in the mobile phone VoIP field. It offers VoIP on a SIM card which eliminates the need for WiFi connections or data plans. The international rates are really quite advantageous, and the standard rates are cheap.
