Fring for Windows Mobile

0

Are you one of the many that recently have bought a HTC phone? I am at least, it’s my work phone. Privately I am using Nokia E60.

It was with great joy I read that Fring now was made available for Windows Mobile 5 and 6. The Windows Mobile version has the same features as the Symbian one. In short, free calls over the following protocols: Fring, Skype, Google Talk, MSN and SIP.

It was just as easy to set up the Windows Mobile version as the Symbian one, and I should really have a look if I can set up my Phonzo VoIP subscription also on my mobile phones. It would make live easier.

Fring 3.0 released

Fring 3.0Fring 3.0 got released a few days ago. Important news in the version is support for the SIP protocol and support for Unicode – all of those funny characters that appears instead of Ææ, Øø and Åå should now be real letters!

I wonder if it would work with my VoIP supplier Phonzo?

The Next Big Thing: Fring ?

2

I guess this might be the next big thing for VoIP. I am at least mighty impressed!

I have for some time been looking for a new mobilephone, and today I bought a Nokia E60 for 1 NOK, simply cause it has built in wifi. Why? I wanted to start using Fring. Fring is for now at least free, and is a multi IM client supporting Google Talk, Skype and MSN. Fring is making use of a patent pending P2P Mobile VoIP technology. The requirements are a Nokia Symbian-based phone with GPRS, UMTS and wifi. As it can use wifi, it also works without SIM card. So not only a mobilephone, but also a great VoIP-phone! Calls can also be made to landlines (and regular GSM), simply by using your SkypeOut minutes.

Registering was straight forward, and seconds afterwards I received a SMS with an URL for downloading the application. Downloading, installing and configuring fring and the three other protocols were all together done in about a minute. It couldn’t have been easier…

So the next time you call me or start chatting with me, don’t take for granted that I sit in front of a computer at home or at work. I might as well be out walking, sitting in a park or at a café. The future is mobile!
