VoIP has taken another step into the mobile market with the announcement that VoIP technology provider Engin is teaming up with Nokia for its new Nseries WLAN mobile phone.
Both companies have been working together to give Nokia’s N80 mobile phone the capability to make VoIP calls when at home or within reach of a wireless hotspot.
The phone will make use of Engin’s VoIP service and attract call charges of 10 cents for an untimed local call, and 20 cents for an untimed international call.
"People are increasingly using Internet Telephony to dramatically reduce the cost of their home phone,” says Ilkka Tales, CEO of Engin. “Already more than one in four people are regularly using their mobile devices to access the Internet which shows that the mass market is recognising the value of convergent devices.
"With the proliferation of WiFi hot spots in the home, office and public areas, people have increasing access to use the Nokia N80 to make calls." added Tales.
