Rob Evans, a highly respected exIBMer, who now is the UK Telecoms Sourcing Manager for the Orange FT Group in the UK. has been writing a series of posts describing how client Truphone has been saving the day for him, on his blog called Rob's Digital Life.
His most recent one talks about being somewhere where phone service was only available from the hotel as cell coverage was non-existent.
With WiFi access, Rob was able to make a call to check on his children who were being watched by "grandmum."
Net Net here is with Truphone and WiFi, Rob can be working anywhere.
It’s great to see more attention coming to the mobile voip industry. I just wanted to mention that jaxtr offers low international calling rates in 220 countries, but people can use their mobile phones (or landlines) without downloading software.
Hope you're finding lots of cool tech stuff out on the blogosphere. Take care.
