WiFiMobile launched a Mobile VoIP service for Symbian smartphones enabling users of the select Nokia S60 devices to make free calls to each other over Wi-Fi, or by by utilizing a network operator data plan.
With the basic service, users can call other VOIP users completely for free. A premium service is also available that permits calls to be made to ordinary landlines or mobile phones at heavily discounted costs. Configuration is a automated and all it requires is that a user enters his phone number on the WiFiMobile’s site.
Corporate users could also use the new service, as they can immediately use certain Nokia S60 handsets as an extension to their corporate IP PBX. This allows IT/Telecom Managers to carefully control their company’s forever escalating mobile phone costs.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do.
In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
